What's wrong?
The step bracket on 2023-2024 Winnebago Commercial Vehicle models is the mounting hardware for the removable folding patio step assembly. It holds the step to the body structure so the step stays fixed when a person enters or exits the vehicle. The bracket and its receiver depend on tight bolts and thread locking fluid to keep the hardware from backing out.
On affected vehicles, thread locking fluid was left out during assembly. Without that locking fluid, the clip-on bracket mounting bolts can loosen as the step is used and the vehicle moves. Once the hardware loosens far enough, the receiver can unscrew from the installed bracket and the step assembly can detach.
Owners can check for a receiver on the bracket that spins by hand. That movement is the warning sign that the bracket hardware has loosened and the step is no longer secure.

What's the safety risk?
A step that detaches while someone is using it increases the risk of injury. If the receiver on the bracket spins or loosens, stop using the step and schedule the recall repair soon. Dealers will inspect the bracket and repair or replace it as needed. Repair is free at any franchised Winnebago dealer.

What happens at the repair

If the bracket is loose or damaged, the technician repairs or replaces the clip-on bracket as needed. The recall repair is free, with parts and labor covered. Winnebago handles prior out-of-pocket repairs through its general reimbursement plan. If you already paid for a related step assembly or bracket repair before the recall work, contact Winnebago customer service and ask what documentation is required for reimbursement.
