Example complaints
Electrical system: “The solar panels on this RV are wired to the solar controller through a 30amp fuse. The fuse holder gets extremely hot during peak solar charging in the afternoon. In order to inspect the 30amp fuse I removed it and it appears to be partially burnt. I am concerned about the heat that is generated at this fuse and fuse holder and I am aware of other Winnebago Ekkos reporting similar findings. I will leave the fuse removed until further notice from Winnebago.”
NHTSA complaint #11608475, filed 2024-08Engine: “The contact owns a 2023 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the accelerator pedal was depressed, however, the RV failed to accelerate as intended. In addition, the contact noticed a burning odor in the interior of the RV. The RV was driven to the shoulder of the road. The contact and the contact's husband exited the RV. The contact stated that the RV burst into flames. The fire department arrived and extinguished the fire. The contact stated that a fire report was filed. The RV was towed to a tow yard. …”
NHTSA complaint #11611011, filed 2024-08, 4,400 milesEquipment: “A fuse between the solar panels and solar controller melted and caused it to flame up. The incident could have caused a major fire. The problem has occurred on other units with various other owners. No. Winnebago is aware of the incident but we have not heard anything from them. There were no indications that this was going to happen.”
NHTSA complaint #11608429, filed 2024-08Other or unknown: “Beginning in October 2025, the Kwikee electric retractable side steps on my Winnebago Ekko began deploying spontaneously while the vehicle was being driven at highway speeds. The steps are designed to retract automatically upon the vehicle being placed in gear and to deploy only when the vehicle side access door is opened via magnetic reed switch. The failure mode observed is the inverse of intended behavior: steps extend and retract outward while the vehicle is actively in motion, without any door opening event. …”
