Winnebago Recalls 2024 Access Travel Trailers Due to Brake Wiring Defect

Winnebago is recalling 2024 Access travel trailers because an incorrectly wired breakaway switch may prevent emergency trailer brakes from activating if the trailer detaches.

What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural vehicle defect (electrical wiring) that prevents emergency brakes from engaging, explicitly increasing the risk of a crash, which aligns with the 'Severe' criteria for significant injury risk.

Plain-English summary

Winnebago Towable is recalling certain 2024 Access travel trailers. The recall addresses a defect in the electrical system where the breakaway switch is incorrectly wired. This wiring error may prevent the breakaway switch and trailer brakes from activating when needed.

The defect increases the risk of a crash if the trailer becomes detached from the towing vehicle, as the emergency trailer brake may not engage. Winnebago will rewire the breakaway switch free of charge to correct the issue.
