What NHTSA recorded

On certain motor homes built on a freightliner chassis with a 400-hp cummins engine, a sheet metal "tab" on a wire cover located behind the accelerator pedal has the potential to catch on the accelerator pedal.

Possible consequence

If the accelerator pedal hangs up on the tab of the wire cover, a hazardous situation could result in the pedal not going back to idle position, increasing the risk of personal injury, vehicle damage and, a crash could occur.

Remedy

Dealers will provide instructions for owners to inspect and if necessary have the wire cover repaired. If owners do not feel comfortable performing the inspection, dealers will inspect and repair as necessary. The recall began on september 17, 2004. Owners should contact winnebago at 641-585-6939.
