Defect SummaryWinnebago is recalling certain model year 2011 vista and itasca sunstar motor homes manufactured from march 16, 2010 through august 12, 2010. these vehicles may have the potential for a cable that powers the slideout room to make contact with the driveshaft when the slideout is retracted.
