Two numbers, one recall

Every safety recall carries two identifiers. 208 is the number Winnebago assigned in its own system: it is what appears on the owner letter, on the dealer’s service screen and on the repair order. 26V498000 is the number NHTSA filed the same recall under when the manufacturer reported it, and it is the one every federal record, this site included, is keyed on.

The repair is free by federal law for vehicles up to fifteen years old. Whether one particular vehicle is included is settled by its VIN against the manufacturer’s build list, not by its model year.

Common questions

Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR Part 573

Is 208 the same recall as 26V498000?

Yes. 208 is Winnebago’s own number for it; 26V498000 is NHTSA’s. One recall, two references.

Which vehicles does 208 cover?

2024–2025 Winnebago Ekko, 96 vehicles by the manufacturer’s count. A recall covers a build range, so the VIN decides whether one particular vehicle is in it.

Does the 208 repair cost anything?

No. The manufacturer must remedy a safety defect at no charge for vehicles up to 15 years old from first sale.
