What's wrong?
The blind spot monitoring system on 2021-2023 Winnebago Ekko motorhomes is the driver-assistance equipment that watches the lanes beside the coach. Its sensors and wiring feed alerts to the driver when another vehicle is in a blind spot, which helps during lane changes and merges. The system is an aid, not a replacement for mirrors and a shoulder check.
On affected Ekko motorhomes, the problem is in the way the system was installed. Wires were routed incorrectly, and some terminal connections were not sealed. Moisture or poor connection quality can interrupt the electrical path, so the blind spot monitoring system stops working instead of sending reliable alerts. The repair uses a new system with corrected wire routing and sealed terminals.
There is no visible or audible alarm that tells you the blind spot monitoring system has stopped working. The driver can be left without the expected blind spot alert before a lane change.

What's the safety risk?
If the blind spot monitoring system is not working, the driver can miss a vehicle alongside the Ekko and the risk of a crash increases. There is no visible or audible warning when the system is not functioning as intended, so check your mirrors and blind spots carefully until the repair is complete. Repair is free at any franchised Winnebago dealer.

- Bring the recall notice if Winnebago mailed one. If not, reference recall number 24V024 when you call.
- Drive with extra mirror and shoulder checks until the repair is complete, because the blind spot monitoring system can fail without warning.
