Read complaints for WINNEBAGO VIA (2011)
I purchased a new winnebago via motor home (built on a mercedes benz sprinter chassis) in august 2010. On short trips(10 to 20 miles) the check engine light would tum on. About a week after this started the check engine light came on and didnot tum off. I contacted a dealer for repair advice and was ask to bring the vehicle in for service. The dealer is about 60 milesaway; requiring 195 interstate use to drive there. The vehicle drove correctly almost all the way to the dealer until i slowed inpreparation to exiting freeway by changing lanes. The vehicle lost all power and went into "limp mode" (as i was told by thedealer service writer). It had no power, slowed to about 25 mph and would not accelerate. To suddenly slow in a lane oftrafficgoing 65+ mph and trying to change lanes is a bit scary and i think dangerous. I was able to get across town (about 10 miles)in traffic by having my emergency flashers on and trying not to hold up traffic.the dealer had to keep the vehicle overnight and loaned me a vehicle to go home until the via motor home was repaired.repair took a day and a half - including waiting for parts. The repair was "remove/install control valve for exhaust-gasrecirculation". I was informed that there was water entering to top of the engine area that caused the valve to fail. The repairalso included "repair of windshield to body sealing". This was all preformed under warranty without cost to me.the service manager at the mercedes-benz sprinter dealership also informed me that this was the fourth unit (winnebabo via) that they had repaired for this problem.it appears that this failure could be a real safety hazard -losing speed when driving on interstate highways at 65mph or greaterupdated 01/20/11
Update on prior complaint for 2011 reyo. Problem not turbo resonator. Water entering engine from area of hood under windshield, shorting egr and filling air filter. After 5 repairs, finally addressed with rubber gasket for hood, and metal cover for egr. Still getting water on airfilter as hood not snug. Will have to be addressed.
Contact owns a 2011 winnebago via rv.the contact stated while driving 10 to 20 mph, the check engine light illuminated for a period of time before remaining illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer but was not repaired. On a later date while driving 60 mph, the vehicle would not accelerate over 20 mph. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the contact was advised that water was leaking from the windshield and into the egr valve gas recirculation, penetrating the engine and causing the failure. The dealer replaced the egr valve gas recirculation and windshield body sealant. The failure and current mileage was 1, 400.
