Component:

Equipment:recreational vehicle:lpg furnace

Manufactured:

01/24/2007 - 07/16/2009

Affected:

469

Defect:

Winnebago is recalling model year 2007-2008 access, aspect, sighteer and vista, model year 2007-2008 itasca impulse, cambria, sunova, and sunstar, model year 2009-2010 winnebago access, sightseer and vista, model year 2009-2010 itasca impulse, sunova, and sunstar motor homes. these motor homes may have a missing stove partition that isolates the furnace air.

Consequence:

If the furnace is operated at the same time as the stove and partition is missing, the stove flame may go out and the propane gas will continue to flow, which has the potential to ignite resulting in personal injury and/or vehicle and property damage.

Correction:

Dealers will correct this situation by installing a stove partition that isolates the stove from the furnace return air at no charge to the owner. the recall began on september 30, 2009. owners may contact winnebago at 1-800-537-1885.
