WINNEBAGO BELIEVES THAT THE ISOLATED OCCURRENCES ARE INSTANCES OF OWNER ABUSE OR LACK OF PROPER MAINTENANCE.ANALYSIS:REVIEW OF WINNEBAGO'S RESPONSE TO THE OCC SPECIAL ORDER AND THE ODI COMPLAINTS INDICATES THAT NO SAFETY DEFECT TREND IS DEVELOPING. THREE OR FOUR YEARS OF VEHICLE USAGE/EXPOSURE HAS RESULTED IN ONLY 3 REPORTS OUT OF NEARLY 7,000 VEHICLES (0.04%).THIS RATE AND REVIEW OF THE REPORTS, SUPPORTS WINNEBAGO'S POSITION THAT THE PROBLEM IS ISOLATED INSTANCES OF MAINTENANCE PROBLEMS.===
