What's wrong?
The cooktop in the 2020 Winnebago Era is the built-in 2-burner stove used for propane cooking inside the motorhome. Its burner control valves regulate gas flow to each burner, so turning a knob opens the valve for ignition and closes it to stop the gas.
On affected Era motorhomes, those burner control valves can become damaged. When a valve no longer seals correctly, gas can escape at the cooktop instead of staying inside the fuel path. Winnebago traced the affected cooktops through purchase orders and production records after Dometic opened equipment recall 22E-021, which covers the cooktop issue.
There is no warning sign before failure. If you smell gas, hear gas escaping, or suspect the cooktop is leaking, shut off the propane supply, ventilate the motorhome, and avoid using the cooktop until a Winnebago dealer inspects it.

What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Winnebago technician works with Dometic to replace the affected 2 burner cooktop. Because this campaign is still listed as under development, treat the cooktop replacement as the final remedy that will be free once Winnebago opens it for your vehicle. Parts and labor are covered under the recall. Winnebago also lists a general reimbursement plan, so keep any paid repair paperwork and ask Winnebago customer service how to submit documentation for review.
