Defect

Vehicle description: motor homes (models 222fd, 222qd, and 222hd). The wheel cover can rotate while mounted on the wheel.

Safety risk

If the cover rotates to the valve stem, a condition exists that could shear the valve stem off, leading to a rapid deflation of the tire. This rapid tire air loss could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle, potentially resulting in a crash.

Remedy

Dealers will replace the rubber valve stems and wheel covers. Owner notification began october 18, 2001. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact winnebago at 1-641-585-6939.

Notes

Also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's auto safety hotline at 1-888-dash-2-DOT (1-888-327-4236).
