What's wrong?
The axle on a 2021 Winnebago Micro Minnie trailer carries the trailer's weight and keeps the wheels positioned under the frame. It is the main suspension part that supports the trailer as it sits, turns, and travels over uneven pavement. The axle rating must match the trailer's required load capacity.
On affected Micro Minnie trailers, Winnebago says undersized axles were installed in error. A lower-rated axle does not have the same load capacity as the axle specified for the trailer. When it carries more weight than it was built to support, the axle is overstressed and can break, which changes how the trailer tracks behind the tow vehicle.
There is no warning sign before failure. The axle rating is printed on the axle, but the VIN decides whether this recall applies to your trailer.
