Recalls, owner-reported complaints, investigations and safety data

Data refreshed

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

Safety recallsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.

InvestigationsNHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.

According to recall No. 20V-695 Trailers were built with undersized axles with Production Dates : AUG 06, 2020 - AUG 27, 2020. Undersized axles were installed in error. After inspecting my unit I found that my axle size was 2,500 lb. and the unit should have a 3,000 lb. axle. My manufactured date is Sept. 2020 and was not included in the recall. Undersized axles may not support the weight of the vehicle and could break and cause serious injury. See uploaded Docs.

When I ordered my Winnebago trailer on December 9th 2020 the literature from Winnebago said the wheel height could be adjusted and came with 14" tires, (well they said they can make changes without notice.) so when I received my 2021 1808FBS trailer, they change to 15" tires and the tires were off-road which made the trailer a lot higher than standard. They only installed a folding two step from getting in or out of the trailer. Taking a step off the last rung is quite a distance of 14" Folks can get a serious fall if they loose their balance and I believe Winnebago needs to reinstall a three step to remedy this serious situation. We are Seniors and would have not ordered the unit if we had known the height was going to be raise. The 14" is without any levelers stepping down.
