Winnebago Sightseer Recall 06V163: Equipment:Recreational Vehicle/Trailer

Safety recall 06V163WINNEBAGO INDUSTRIES, INC.

Component: EQUIPMENT:RECREATIONAL VEHICLE/TRAILER
Problem: ON CERTAIN MOTOR HOMES, THE FLAME ON THE COOKING RANGE MAY BE FORCED DOWNWARD OVER THE BURNER OR FLAME OUTAGE MAY OCCUR WHEN THE COOKING RANGE AND FURNACE ARE OPERATED AT THE SAME TIME. THIS CONDITION IS DUE TO THE POSSIBILITY OF A MISSING CABINET PANEL THAT ISOLATES THE FURNACE RETURN AIR.
Risk: IF THE FURNACE IS OPERATED AT THE SAME TIME AS THE STOVE AND THE CABINET PANEL 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 OR VEHICLE AND PROPERTY DAMAGE.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE CABINET ASSEMBLY FOR A CABINET PANEL AND INSTALL ONE IF NECESSARY FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN ON JUNE 2, 2006. OWNERS MAY CONTACT WINNEBAGO AT 641-585-6939.
