The vehicles can be shifted out of 'PARK' without applying the brakes

PhotoWinnebago Industries is recalling 297 model year 2015-2016 Winnebago Brave, Sightseer, Vista and Adventurer motorhomes and Itasca Tribute, Sunova, Sunstar, and Suncruiser motorhomes manufactured from July 13, 2015, through October 6, 2015.

 

The vehicles, built on Ford chassis, can be shifted out of 'PARK' without applying the brakes, due to an incorrect shift cable bracket and an improper shift cable adjustment.

 

If the vehicle can be shifted into reverse without the brakes being applied, it may unintentionally move, increasing the risk of a crash.

 

Ford will notify owners, and Ford dealers will replace the transmission shift control bracket and adjust the transmission shift cable, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule.

 

Owners may contact Winnebago customer service at 1-641-585-3535 or Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332.
