What's wrong?
The Supplemental Restraint System wiring under the driver and passenger seats carries electrical signals for the air bag and seat restraint system. On affected 2024-2026 Winnebago motorhomes, those wires sit near the seat tracks and adjustment hardware. When the system is intact, the restraint controller can read the seat and air bag circuits correctly.
During assembly, the wiring was routed where the seat mechanism can catch it as the driver or passenger seat is moved. Repeated seat adjustments can pinch, scrape, or break the wire insulation or conductor. If the circuit is damaged, the SRS system can lose the signal it needs, and the air bags can fail to deploy in a crash.
The warning sign is an SRS alert in the dash cluster after the wire damage occurs. If you see that alert, treat it as a restraint-system fault and have the routing inspected before relying on the air bag system.

A matching year and model does not guarantee inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific motorhome is included.
What's the safety risk?
Damaged wiring can keep the air bags from deploying in a crash, increasing injury risk. Wire damage triggers an SRS alert in the dash cluster; if that alert appears, schedule service soon and ask the dealer whether the vehicle should be driven before inspection. Repair is free at any franchised Winnebago dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2024-2026 Winnebago Navion, View, Revel, Ekko, Adventure Wagon, Revel Sport, Porto, or Vita motorhome is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Winnebago dealer to schedule the free SRS-wire inspection and re-routing that keeps seat movement from damaging air bag wiring.
- Bring the recall notice if Winnebago mailed one, or reference recall number 25V478 when you call.
- Avoid adjusting the driver or passenger seats more than needed until the wiring is inspected and re-routed.
- Call Winnebago customer service at 1-641-585-6939 with questions about the repair or owner letter.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Winnebago technician inspects the Supplemental Restraint System wiring near the driver and passenger seat mechanisms, then re-routes the wiring so it does not get caught when the seats are adjusted. The inspection and repair are free under the recall. If you already paid for an SRS wiring repair tied to this recall, ask Winnebago customer service about reimbursement under the manufacturer's standard plan and bring documentation to the dealer.
