The problem
Winnebago is recalling 35 my 2006-2008 aspect, access, chalet, outlook, and minnie winnie motor homes, and my 2007-2008 itasca cambria motor homes. A poor ground may develop on the daytime running light module that would allow the module to overheat.
The risk
This could have the potential to ignite, possibly resulting in personal injury and/or vehicle and property damage.
The fix
Dealers will replace the daytime running light module ground wire. The recall began on may 30, 2008. Owners may contact winnebago at 1-641-585-3535.
