2000–2002 Itasca Horizon & 2000–2002 Itasca IKP36LD + 3 more recall: fuel system
⚠️ What's wrong
Vehicle description: motor homes (models WKP36L, WKP36LD, and IKP36LD). Four nuts may have loosened from the four bolts that connect the liquid propane (lp) tank to the motor home. If the attachment hardware is loosened, the road vibration could produce undue stress on the weld joints of the brackets and they could break.
💥 The risk
If this happens, the tank could fall off, resulting in a road hazard or a fire.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will inspect the lp tank attachment and re-tightened the fasteners in addition to adding lock nuts. Owner notification began august 24, 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.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
