Itasca / Winnebago recall: Child seat
What is wrong
Winnebago Industries Inc. (Winnebago) is recalling certain model year 2013-2014 Aspect and Itasca Cambria (models 730C and 730J) motorhomes, manufactured March 12, 2012, through May 31, 2013. The child seat tether is mounted in an improper position.
What could happen
This improper position does not allow the child seat to be used properly and in the event of a crash, it will not allow the child seat to properly protect the occupant which increases the risk of injury.
The fix
Winnebago will notify owners and dealers will remove the child tether, free of charge. The recall began on September 27, 2013. Owners may contact Winnebago at 1-800-537-1885 or [email protected]. Winnebago's campaign number is 130.
