Winnebago is recalling 2021-2025 Ekko motorhomes due to a solar charging system design flaw that can cause fuses to melt and start fires. Owners should contact customer service for free replacement of the solar controller fuse.
A melted fuse increases the risk of a fire.
Winnebago is recalling certain 2021-2025 Ekko motorhomes because the solar charging system lacks proper over-current protection. This can cause fuses to melt and lead to fire risk. Affected owners should get their solar controller fuse replaced at no cost.
The solar charging system was designed without enough over-current protection. This allows the circuit to overheat and melt the fuse, which can then cause a fire.
Winnebago Ekko motorhome owners who purchased models from 2021 to 2025 are affected. Those with solar charging systems are most at risk.
Check if your Winnebago Ekko motorhome was purchased between 2021 and 2025. The recall covers models with solar charging systems.
Call 1-641-585-3535 to schedule a free replacement of the solar controller fuse and components.
