2021 Winnebago Micro Minnie Owner Complaints

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.
