- Winnebago Towable (Winnebago) is recalling certain 2021-2023 Micro Minnie travel trailers. The spare tire carrier may fail when loaded with a certain off-road style tire.
- What it can cause
- A spare tire carrier that fails can detach from the vehicle and become a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will replace the spare tire carrier, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 2, 2023. Owners may contact Winnebago customer service at 1-574-825-5280 ext. 5220. Winnebago's number for this recall is CAM0000029.
- 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 10,492 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 80% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2021 to 2023, so the oldest vehicles on it were 2 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Winnebago vehicles have been recalled over the structure 9 times before this, most recently in November 2022 as 22V863000. 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, 2 of them before this campaign was filed. 3 of those name the structure, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 7 other recalls published here, the newest being: 24V285000 (equipment), 24V054000 (equipment), 23V311000 (structure), 22V883000 (equipment).
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 April 14, 2023 as campaign 23V270000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
