What's wrong?
The Vehicle Certification Label is the permanent information label on a 2011 Winnebago Vista or Sunstar motorhome. It gives service shops and owners the required tire inflation pressure and wheel rim size for that specific vehicle. Those details matter because tire pressure and rim size are part of how the tires carry the loaded motorhome safely.
On affected motorhomes, the label lists incorrect tire inflation pressures and wheel rim sizes. The recall filing does not identify a separate broken mechanical part; the defect is the incorrect certification information itself. An owner or shop relying on that label can set up tires or wheels using the wrong figures, leaving the vehicle out of compliance with the certification rules.
There is no warning sign before failure. The label looks official even when the printed tire and rim information is wrong, so the problem is found by checking whether the VIN is included in recall 13V318.
Who's affected?
Covers two coach names from the same model year, both tied to the vehicle label.
| 2011 Winnebago Vista | vehicle label (placard or certification) |
|---|---|
| 2011 Itasca Sunstar | vehicle label (placard or certification) |
| Units affected | 150 |
A matching 2011 Vista or Sunstar does not confirm inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific motorhome is included.
What's the safety risk?
Incorrect tire pressure or tire size can cause tire failure. A tire failure can make the vehicle harder to control and increase the risk of a crash. Use the corrected certification label when setting tire pressure and confirming tire size. Repair will be free at any franchised Winnebago dealer once available.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2011 Winnebago Vista or Sunstar motorhome is included in this recall.

- Install the corrected label before using the tire-pressure or wheel-rim-size information on the old certification label.
- Call Winnebago at 1-800-537-1885 with questions and reference recall number 13V318 when you call.

What happens at the repair
For this recall, the fix is a corrected Vehicle Certification Label, not a mechanical repair. Winnebago began mailing the corrected labels to owners on September 9, 2013, free of charge. The label lists the corrected tire inflation pressures and wheel rim sizes for the motorhome. If your VIN is included and the corrected label is missing, contact Winnebago or a Winnebago dealer to confirm the label was provided and get the proper replacement.
