There is a recall for the year 2014-2023 but not for the 2013 Winnebago as yet.
WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY THROUGH AN ARIZONA TOWN AT 35 MPH THE LIGHT TURNED TO RED JUST WITHIN BREAKING DISTANCE. IN ORDER TO COME TO A STOP IN FRONT OF THE STOP LINE, I HAD TO BRAKE HARDER THAN USUAL. THIS CAUSED THE PASSENGER TO BE SLAMMED INTO THE SAFETY BELT AND INJURED. THE SAFETY BELT CAUSED SEVERE PRESSURE ON THROAT AND WIND PIPE. THE PASSENGER WAS 5 FOOT 3 INCHES. REASON FOR INCIDENT: THE UPPER FIXATION POINTS OF THE SAFETY BELTS IN THE WINNEBAGO SIGHTSEERS ARE VERY HIGH. FOR SHORTER PEOPLE THE SAFETY BELT WILL RUN ACROSS THE THROAT AND WINDPIPE OF THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER, RESPECTIVELY. HEIGHT ADJUSTMENTS ARE NOT POSSIBLE.
