Example complaints

Body and structure: “In four of the five times I have driven this motorhome, while on the highway, one of the side compartment doors will open, without notice. I'm often flagged by other drivers letting me know that the compartment door is open. Lucky that there has been an accident. I'm concerned to drive it.”

Steering: “I read a complaint in the NHTSA files, about the loose steering of another 2019 Winnebago Forza 34t, on freightliner xcs chassis. At first I thought it was me getting used to the steering, but after driving this motorhome approximately 3000 miles, I realized that the coach is very unstable and the steering has too much play in it. It makes it very difficult to control and maintain it within the traffic lanes, specially at highway speeds of 60-65 MPH. …”

NHTSA complaint #11299511, filed 2020-01, 15 miles

Exterior lighting: “Freightliner chassis with optiview dash lights. The dash lights will not dim enough to safely drive at night. The brightness reduces your night vision. Have a safety recall but they do not have an active recall or fix. Campaign fl859-a optiview dash cluster brightness”

NHTSA complaint #11395861, filed 2021-02, 2,080 miles

Wheels: “There are many steering issues about the xcs freightliner chassis used in the Winnebago diesel pushers. We have a brand new Winnebago and the steering has so much play in it. We have had it to the dealer and freightliner twice and all they say is it is adjusted to specifications. This rig is not safe to derive on the highway. The amount of play in the wheel makes it difficult to keep the mh straight on a road. This is an accident just waiting to happen. We can swap out some components at a steep cost, but this is a brand new mh! …”
