The problem
Winnebago is recalling two model year 2008 access motor homes, manufactured on april 10, 2008, and july 23, 2008. Over time and with frequent use, the roll stop latches on the wheelchair lifts outer barrier may become bent or misaligned.
The risk
A wheelchair occupant may defeat or ride over the insufficiently latched roll stop. If this occurs when the lift platform is in an elevated position, the wheelchair's occupant could fall and sustain injury.
The fix
Winnebago is working with braun to identify and notify owners, and braun dealers will repair the vehicles, free of charge. The safety recall began on march 30, 2012. Owners may contact winnebago industries owner relations at 1-641-585-6939.
