Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Winnebago Industries is recalling certain model year 2006 through 2011 Winnebago View and Itasca Navion motor homes due to a defect in the dinette area seat belt restraints. The seat belt anchorages do not comply with federal safety standards, and during a collision, crash forces can cause the restraint attachment to tear, allowing the anchor to separate from the vehicle body. If this separation occurs during a crash, the seat belt will not properly restrain the occupant, increasing the risk of injury or death.
Winnebago will add additional seat belt anchorages to affected vehicles at no charge. The recall began on November 12, 2010. Owners of affected vehicles should contact Winnebago at 1-800-537-1885 to have the repair performed.
