What's wrong?
The driver and passenger seats in the 2010 Winnebago View Profile, Navion Iq, View, and Navion motor homes are supposed to stay fixed to their seat bases. The seat bolts clamp the seat frame and track in place so the seat position stays controlled when the motor home is driven, stopped, or turned.
On affected motor homes, a bolt is missing from the driver seat, the passenger seat, or both. A missing bolt leaves part of the seat attachment incomplete, so the seat is not secured the way the design requires. The problem is in the seat mounting hardware, not the cushion or upholstery.
There is no warning sign before failure. Do not rely on a rattle, looseness, or visible seat movement to confirm whether this recall applies.
Who's affected?
Spans the View Profile, Navion Iq, View, and Navion motorhome lines, all with the same seat assembly.

A matching year and model does not guarantee inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether this recall applies to your specific motorhome.
What's the safety risk?
If a seat bolt is missing, the seat or seat belt can fail to work as designed in a crash, increasing the risk of injury or death. There is no listed warning sign before the problem is found, so confirm whether your VIN is included and schedule the inspection. Repair will be free at any franchised Winnebago dealer once available.

- Ask the dealer to inspect the driver and passenger seat bolts and install or replace missing bolts so the seats and seat belts work as designed in a crash.

What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Winnebago technician checks the driver and passenger seat bolts to confirm each bolt is present and torqued correctly. If a seat bolt is missing or does not meet the required torque, the technician installs or replaces the bolt as needed. The recall repair has been open since June 30, 2010, and the seat bolt inspection and repair are free under campaign 10V248.
