TRAILER HITCHES
- The defect
- Winnebago Towable (Winnebago) is recalling certain 2022 Winnebago Micro Minnie, Minnie, and Voyage travel trailers. The coupler was improperly welded, which may cause the trailer to separate from the tow vehicle.
- What it can cause
- Trailer separation from the tow vehicle can increase the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will inspect and replace the coupler, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 20, 2022. Owners may contact Winnebago customer service at 1-574-825-5280 ext. 5220.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares
At 1,638 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 64% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2022, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2022, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Winnebago vehicles have been recalled over the trailer hitches 2 times before this, most recently in March 2016 as 16V155000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for 1 of the 3 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 6 complaints with NHTSA.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 9 other recalls published here, the newest being: 24V618000 (equipment), 24V285000 (equipment), 24V054000 (equipment), 23V311000 (structure).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Winnebago Towable with NHTSA on March 15, 2022 as campaign 22V157000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
