Winnebago is recalling 102 2008-2011 Adventurer, Suncruiser, Voyage, and Sunrise motor homes because dinette area seat belt anchor attachments can tear and let an anchor separate from the vehicle body during a crash. If that happens, the belt will not properly restrain the seat occupant, increasing the risk of injury or death, and the dealer repair will be free once available.

What's wrong?
The dinette area seat belt restraints in affected 2008-2011 Winnebago Adventurer, Suncruiser, Voyage, and Sunrise motor homes are the belts and anchor points used by passengers seated at the dinette. The anchor points are supposed to hold the belt assembly to the body of the motor home during a collision. That connection is what lets the belt restrain a seated passenger instead of pulling loose.
In recall 10V471, the dinette seat belt anchorage does not meet the seat belt anchorage standard. During a collision, crash forces can tear the restraint attachment and let the anchor separate from the vehicle body. If that happens, the belt no longer holds the passenger the way it was designed to hold.
There is no warning sign before failure. The problem is in how the dinette restraint is attached, so an owner will not feel a change in normal driving before a crash load tests the anchorage.
