NHTSA Complaint #10268510 — 2007 WINNEBAGO SIGHTSEER

2007 WINNEBAGO MOTOR HOME WINDSHIELD WIPER FAILURE. WIPERS FAILED COMPLETELY, WITHOUT WARNING IN AN EXTREME DOWNPOUR SITUATION. I WAS UNABLE TO SEE THE HIGHWAY AT ALL. BY THE GRACE OF GOD, I WAS ABLE TO EXIT INTO A REST AREA IMMEDIATELY. I PURCHASED ANOTHER WIPER MOTOR FROM A WINNEBAGO DEALER. IT ALSO FAILED WITHIN 2500 MILES. THE RESULT WAS NOT AS SEVERE BECAUSE THE RAIN WAS ONLY MISTING. IT WAS STILL INCONVENIENT BECAUSE I STILL HAD TO DRIVE FOR A DISTANCE IN ORDER TO SAFELY EXIT THE HIGHWAY. WINNEBAGO DOES NOT SEEM TO CARE ABOUT THE INCONVENIENCE, NOR MORE IMPORTANTLY, THE POTENTIAL CATASTROPHIC RESULTS OF THIS FAILURE. *TR
