Details

What's wrong: The motorhome is equipped with a ricon manufactured wheelchair lift which has an optional armored pendant cable. The cable may have been installed such that it doesn't clear the wheelchair lift and without a protective cover, or a misinstalled protective cover.

Why it matters: The cable may contact the power lug at the base of the wheel chair lift causing a short circuit that could result in a fire.

The fix: Ricon will be conducting this recall on behalf of winnebago. Ricon will notify the affected owner and will provide a supplemental cover kit and instructions, free of charge. The safety recall began on February 6, 2013.
