Winnebago Towable (Winnebago) is recalling certain 2019 Micro Minnie5, Minnie Drop, 2020 Minnie Plus5, 2018-2021 Minnie, and 2022 Hike 100 travel trailers.

As such these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 110, "Tire Selection and Rims."
Consequence & remedy

Remedy: Winnebago will mail correct labels to owners for installation, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 12, 2025. Owners may contact Winnebago customer service at 1-574-825-5280 ext. 5220. Winnebago's number for this recall is CAM0000045.
Winnebago Towable (Winnebago) is recalling certain 2017-2019 Winnebago Minnie Drop recreational trailers. The liquid propane (LP) gas supply line may be missing p-clamps, allowing the supply line to contact the burner assembly on the refrigerator.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If the LP line contacts the burner assembly, the hose may melt, causing a gas leak, increasing the risk of a fire.
Remedy: Winnebago will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the LP supply line for melting, replacing and securing the line as necessary, free of charge. The recall began March 7, 2019. Owners may contact Winnebago customer service at 1-574-825-5280, extension 5220.
