What's wrong?
The liquid propane (LP) hose on the 2026-2027 Winnebago Solis carries propane from the RV's LP system to equipment that uses it. The hose is supposed to sit behind the exhaust heat shield, where the shield separates the hose from exhaust heat.
On affected Solis RVs, the LP hose was routed over the heat shield because rework instructions were not clear enough. That routing puts the hose where continuous exhaust heat can reach it instead of protecting it. Heat exposure can weaken the hose material and cause the LP line to fail, allowing propane to escape from the system.
Winnebago lists no owner warning sign before the hose fails. There is no warning sign before failure, so a normal walkaround or drive will not reliably show whether the hose routing is wrong.

What's the safety risk?
Heat exposure can damage the LP hose, and a damaged hose can leak fuel, increasing the risk of a fire. There is no warning sign before failure. Use caution until the recall repair opens, and contact a Winnebago dealer with safety concerns. Repair will be free at any franchised Winnebago dealer once available.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2026-2027 Winnebago Solis is included in this recall.
- Wait for Winnebago's owner letter expected July 3, 2026, before scheduling the final repair unless Winnebago says the repair is open sooner.
- Call Winnebago customer service at 1-641-585-6939 with questions and reference recall number 26V285 (Winnebago recall 206).
- Ask a franchised Winnebago dealer about the free LP hose rerouting that moves the hose away from the exhaust heat shield.
- Avoid using the LP system if you smell fuel or see hose damage, and contact Winnebago before driving the RV.
What happens at the repair
Winnebago has not opened the final dealer repair yet. Once available, a Winnebago technician will reroute the LP hose so it no longer passes over the exhaust heat shield. The dealer repair will be free, with parts and labor covered under recall 26V285. Winnebago uses its standard reimbursement plan for this campaign. If you already paid for an LP hose routing repair tied to this defect, keep the invoice and contact Winnebago customer service about a documented claim.
