Winnebago entered motor home production in 1966 with well built full sized RVs, selling at approximately half the price of competitor vehicles. leading to its dominance of the RV market sector.Through the 1970s and into the 1980s model names were influenced by the Native American tribe of the same name and included the Brave, the Indian, the Chieftain, and the Warrior. Older Winnebago RVs are often recognizable by the painted "w" (also called the "flying W") on the side of the vehicle, with a stripe that connects the front and back of the camper.
In 1973, the company introduced a new model, the Minnie Winnie, built on the Dodge B-series van chassis. It was about 19-1/2 feet (5.9 m) long (despite the name, longer than the shortest contemporary Brave model). Longer models were added through the years

The Tour range was based on a Freightliner Custom Chassis, the 42QD is a 43 foot RVand has a wheel cut of 60 degrees, with three slide outs, one being a full wall. It is powered by Cummins 450BHP engine and coupled to the Allison 6 speed transmission.

DEFECT #3 - SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRIC


Posted on: 2016-04-25
Description
Winnebago industries, inc (winnebago) is recalling certain model year 2014 winnebago tour, and itasca ellipse vehicles manufactured may 23, 2013, to august 9, 2013 and built on a freightliner chassis.  On certain recreational vehicles built with a heavier, adjustable foot pedal, the brake activation signal to certain towed devices may not deactivate when the service brakes are released.

Consequence
If the brake activation signal to a towed device remains active when the motorhome chassis service brakes are released, the brakes on a towed device may remain engaged depending on brake configuration of the trailer.  As a result, the brakes would drag and possibly overheat potentially resulting in a fire.  Additionally, following drivers may be confused by the motorhome's actions, increasing the risk of a crash.

Corrective Action
Daimler trucks north america, llc., (dtna) will notify owners, and dealers will modify the affected brake assemblies, free of charge.  The recall began on june 6, 2016.  Owners may contact daimler truck north america, llc., customer service at 1-800-745-8000.  Dtna's recall number for this recall campaign is fl-704.  Owners may also contact winnebago customer service at 1-641-585-3535.
