Consumer Description
My safety complaint is for a 2022 Winnebago Travato RV which has a Ram Pro Master Chassis with solar panels on roof. It has two solar panels that are 12" X 18" and 36" X 36" mounted about 4 to 6 inches horizontal above the roof line. The problem is that at higher speeds the flow of wind makes a very strong Turbulence and causes the RV to shutter and vibrate and very hard to control. If a gust of wind comes and you are not ready you could loose control of the RV and crash. Winnebago is aware of this issue since 2020 and has not done any thing about it. All they tell me that this doesn't happen with all Travato's which I find hard to understand since that are all made the same. There is so many complaints out on the web about this issue. My Travato was at the dealer for more then a month and they agreed that this is a issue but they can't doing any work until Winnebago comes up with a fix to the issue. I don't know why Winnebago engineering staff can't see that you need to put a wind deflector in front and behind the solar panels to stop the positive and negative air pressure to stop all this vibration. I have had my RV for 3 months and it has been at the dealer for most of the time. I won't drive it on the open highway because it is unsafe at higher speeds and I don't want kill my family or someone else's family.
