VIN Check on used MH
I just purchased a used 2005 Winnebego Adventurer over the memorial day weekend. We were really just looking for more information on a later purchase, but found a sweet well cared for RV with a new crate motor (8K on the motor), and well we bought it. Should be picking it up this week. it needed a new camera and some detailing but the wrong parts were sent so the pickup has been delayed.
While waiting, I've been researching the forums and found that there may be safety recalls that might not have been performed, so I'm hoping someone can check the VIN and tell me:
If all the recalls have been performed.
If it is a W22 (I hope) chassis or a W20.
The VIN is 5B4MP67G653407013
Thanks,
Art

ART: that is a 2005 W-20 chassis. It has the Bosch Brake and the fuel rail dampener clip recalls completed. There are no other recalls open.
If you want the entire build sheet, send an email to edgray1@gmail.com so I can attach it to a reply.

And that is a perfect example of why those type vin # searches are almost useless. They cannot know if recalls exist or have been completed, and often cannot distinguish exactly what "model" because WCC chose to group at least three distinct models under one model code (the "6" in the sixth vin position was used for W-20, W-21, & W-22 model chassis). Granted, the differences are mostly in the GVWR.
There are several of us here that can "run" a WCC vin #, and I believe most any GM dealership can also, if they choose to put forth the effort. ALL the WCC Authorized Service Centers can, and most will do so as a courtesy to owners.

Go to the Workhorse website and you will be able to enter your chassis vin number and find out everything you ever wanted to know about your workhorse chassis. You can also register with Workhorse to get important updates and any future recall notices.

That would be very helpful indeed. Can you provide a link or the URL of this website?

Yes I'd like the link as well. The only thing I could find is a Workhorse club that requires membership. The website doesn't look like it has been updated since 2015.

www.workhorseclub.com is the FMCA Chapter's website. The club is open to all owners of WCC powered motor homes and membership in FMCA is required to join. The club is active, has well over 200 members, and the website is regularly updated with rally info and the periodic newsletter.
Even Without membership or login credentials, ANY visitor to the site can read the details of ALL the recalls ever issued by WCC, but this website cannot confirm specific recalls for a specific chassis vin #. It is intended as information. The info about which recalls, and if they have been completed or not, is contained in the warranty database at WCC, but that source is not open to public viewing. Access to that source of detailed info IS available to all the WCC ASCs.

NO. The 20601-C (steering shaft) and the 60601-C (Fuel dampener clip) recalls have both been completed and no other recalls are open.
