Consequence
The overheating of the water may result in the release of steam, possibly causing the operator to scald themselves and increasing the risk of injury.

Corrective Action
Winnebago will notify owners.  The remedy for this recall is still under development.  The recall began on january 26, 2016.  Owners may contact winnebago customer service at 1-641-585-3535, or atwood customer service at 1-574-264-2131.
