Winnebago Towable is recalling approximately 325 of its 2024 Access travel trailers due to a critical safety defect. The breakaway switch, which is designed to activate the trailer's brakes if it becomes detached from the towing vehicle, was wired incorrectly and may fail to operate. Owners are eligible for a free repair to correct the wiring of the breakaway switch.
If the trailer becomes detached from the towing vehicle while in motion, the incorrectly wired switch may prevent the emergency brakes from engaging. This failure significantly increases the risk of a high-speed crash or injury if the trailer continues to roll unbraked into traffic or off the roadway.
Winnebago will rewire the breakaway switch free of charge.
