2015 WINNEBAGO TRAVATO Complaints and Recall Information
The 2015 WINNEBAGO TRAVATO has 0 complaints and 9 recalls filed with NHTSA. Owners most frequently report issues related to electrical system faults, tire pressure monitoring malfunctions, and propane system defects among the recalls. There are no formal complaints recorded.
A total of nine recalls address defects affecting various systems including electrical components, the tire pressure monitoring system, propane fuel hoses, accelerator pedal operation, brakes, ignition switches, and fire extinguishers. The recalls involve safety-critical features such as airbags, brakes, and fire suppression equipment.
Recalls- Electrical system corrosion. Recall 14V322000 affects 653 vehicles built on Ram ProMaster chassis from 2014 and 2015. Water intrusion around the battery cover and footwell trim causes circuit corrosion. This may disable airbags, lighting, and door locks, increasing crash risk. Repairs involve inspecting and repairing connectors, relocating the battery fuse, and installing a water barrier sealer at no charge.
- Tire pressure monitoring failure. Recall 15V008000 involves 1,107 vehicles where the TPMS may not learn sensor locations, causing false low tire pressure warnings or failure to alert actual pressure loss. This could lead to tire failure and crash risk. Dealers update the TPMS software for free.
- LP hose leak risk. Recall 15V625000 covers 8,842 vehicles with propane hoses that may harden and leak at the crimp fitting. Leaks near ignition sources can cause fires. Dealers replace the LP hose free of charge.
- Accelerator pedal sticking. Recall 14V121000 affects 198 vehicles where the pedal can get stuck at wide open throttle due to interference with the stopper. Uncontrolled acceleration risk is mitigated by replacing the pedal stopper with a larger one at no cost.
- Brake hose damage. Recall 14V179000 involves 107 vehicles with potentially damaged brake hoses causing fluid leaks. This reduces braking performance and increases crash risk. Inspections and replacements are done free of charge.
- Ignition switch electrical loss. Recall 16V026000 affects 359 motorhomes with intermittent ignition switch contact failures. This causes stalls and disables airbags, ABS, ESC, and instrument cluster, increasing crash and injury risk. Dealers replace the ignition switch contact block at no cost.
- Loose electrical connection. Recall 16V598000 includes 3,826 vehicles where a loose connection to the automatic transfer switch may cause heat buildup and fire risk. Repairs involve tightening the connection and replacing components as needed for free.
- Fire extinguisher malfunction. Recall 17V782000 includes 17,360 units equipped with certain Kidde fire extinguishers that may clog or detach nozzles. This prevents proper discharge or may cause injury. Owners are instructed to contact Kidde for free replacement extinguishers.
Owners dealing with repeated repairs, safety defects, or unresolved recall issues involving critical systems such as brakes, airbags, or fire extinguishers may have rights under their state’s lemon law. They should consider consulting a consumer protection attorney to review their situation.

EQUIPMENT
Winnebago Industries, Inc. (Winnebago) is recalling certain 2013-2018 Winnebago Era, Travato, Minnie Winnie, Fuse, View, Trend, Aspect, Brave, Vista, Sightseer, Adventurer, Forza, Journey, Tour, Revel, Paseo, Chalet, Access, and Intent motorhomes and Commercial vehicles, and 2013-2018 Itasca Spirit, Navion, Cambria, Tribute, Sunstar, Sunova, Suncruiser, Solei, Meridian, Elipse, Horizon, Reyo, and Via motorhomes. These vehicles are equipped with Kidde Plastic-Handle or Push Button 'Pindicator' fire extinguishers that may become clogged, preventing the extinguisher from discharging as expected or excessive force may be needed to activate the extinguisher. Additionally, in certain models, the nozzle may detach from the valve assembly with enough force that it could cause injury and also render the product inoperable. For a full list of the affected fire extinguisher models visit: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2017/RMISC-17E062-5427.pdf
Risk: In the event of a fire, if the fire extinguisher does not function properly, it can increase the risk of injury.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION:SWITCH
Winnebago Industries, Inc. (Winnebago) is recalling certain model year 2015-2016 Winnebago Travato, Trend, and Itasca Viva! motor homes manufactured February 27, 2015, to January 6, 2016. The affected vehicles have an ignition switch that may experience an intermittent loss of electrical contact.
Risk: An intermittent loss of contact can result in a vehicle stall and/or a partial or complete loss of the air bags, anti-lock brakes, electronic stability control and/or instrument panel cluster. Loss of functionality of these systems may increase the risk of crash and/or increase the risk of injury in the event of a crash.

EQUIPMENT:RECREATIONAL VEHICLE/TRAILER:LPG SYSTEMS
Winnebago Industries, Inc. (Winnebago) is recalling certain model year 2013-2016 Winnebago Era, Travato, View, Trend, Via, Journey, and Tour motorhomes and Itasca Navion, Viva, Reyo, Meridian, and Elipse motorhomes manufactured June 26, 2012, to August 26, 2015. In the affected vehicles, the high pressure liquid propane (LP) hose may harden and result in an LP leak at the crimp fitting.
Risk: An LP leak in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire.

TIRES:PRESSURE MONITORING AND REGULATING SYSTEMS
Winnebago Industries, Inc. (Winnebago) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 Winnebago Trend, Travato, and Itasca Viva motorhomes manufactured November 13, 2013, to December 23, 2014. In the affected vehicles, the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) may fail to learn the locations of the individual sensors while the vehicle is being driven. As a result, the low tire pressure warning light will illuminate, despite the the tire pressures being within specification. Should one of the tires lose air pressure, the driver would not be notified of the change in air pressure. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 138, "Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems."
Risk: If the TPMS light illuminates because the sensors cannot be located, it could mask an actual low tire pressure condition, possibly resulting in tire failure, increasing the risk of a crash.

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:HOSES, LINES/PIPING, AND FITTINGS
Winnebago Industries, Inc. (Winnebago) is recalling certain 2014-2015 Travato, 2014 Trend and Itasca Viva! motorhomes manufactured November 13, 2013, through April 3, 2014 on Ram ProMaster chassis. During the manufacturing of the chassis, a tool may have damaged one of the brake hoses which may result in a leakage of brake fluid from the brake hose.
Risk: Brake fluid leakage would result in a reduction of brake performance, lengthening the distance needed to stop the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

In the affected vehicles, if the accelerator pedal is pushed downward at a certain angle, the pedal may get stuck in the wide open throttle position due to interference with the accelerator pedal stopper.
Risk: A stuck accelerator pedal can result in uncontrolled acceleration, increasing the risk of a crash.
