“My 2006 Winnebago VIEW keeps going into a reduced power limp home state. Very dangerous on the interstate.. I can't merge properly and vehicle won't go over 60 MPH. Very little power at higher speeds. Not possible to drive with flow of traffic. This is going to cause an accident sooner or later.”

“In january 2007 I was driving my 2006 Winnebago VIEW down I-95 to orlando florida. Somewhere in georgia the turbo failed and the check engine light came on and I could not go over 60mph in traffic flowing at 75mph plus. It was very dangerous. I took the Winnebago to a dodge dealer in orlando and after 6 days of unexpectedly staying in a hotel they repaired the problem. This same instance happened this weekend in september of 2008. I stopped for fuel and I was driving on the garden state parkway and accelerated and the same problem happened again. …”
