What's wrong, in plain English: Parts can break and cause loss of control. A VEHICLE THAT IS FULLY EQUIPPED AND LOADED WITH A TYPICAL PAYLOAD WILL CAUSE AN OVERLOADED CONDITION ON THE FRONT AXLE.
What could happen: OVERLOADING THE AXLE CAUSES THE FRONT AXLE COMPONENTSTO FAIL PREMATURELY WHICH MAY RESULT IN LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL AND PERSONALINJURY AND/OR VEHICLE DAMAGE.
The fix: REPLACE THE FRONT AXLE AND SPRING ASSEMBLY WITH A HIGHER RATED AXLE ASSEMBLY.
What to do
- Check whether your car is affected: enter your 17-digit VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls. A recall covers specific VINs, not every 1993 VECTRA.
- Book a repair at any authorized Winnebago dealer. Quote NHTSA campaign 93V052000.
- The repair is free. By US law, safety recall repairs cost the owner nothing, no matter the car's age or mileage.
- Buying this car used? Ask the seller for proof the recall was completed, or run the VIN yourself before paying.
