What's wrong?
The dinette seat belt restraints in the 2006-2011 Winnebago View and Navion motor homes are supposed to hold seated passengers against the body structure during a crash. The belt webbing wraps around the passenger, while the anchor points fasten the belt assembly to the motor home body. That anchor point has to stay attached when crash loads pull against it.
In affected motor homes, the dinette area seat belt anchorages do not meet the required strength standard. In a collision, the force on the belt can tear the restraint attachment. If that happens, the anchor can separate from the vehicle body and the belt no longer holds the passenger as designed.
There is no warning sign before failure. The anchor issue is about crash strength, so an owner is not expected to hear, feel, or see a symptom during normal driving.
