Winnebago recalls trailers: Cooktop flame may invert

Winnebago Towables is recalling certain 2025-2026 Micro Minnie travel trailers. The cooktop flame may invert when the stove and furnace are operated at the same time.

An inverted cooktop flame increases the risk of a fire, which can lead to injury to occupants as well as damage to the trailer. As many 672 RVs may be affected by this recall, which was issued November 12. Winnebago is aware of two claims, but no injuries or property damage due to this condition.

Determining the danger

In late September, Winnebago received two claims from a dealership regarding an inverted flame on a 2026 Micro Minnie model series trailer due to the cooktop flame potentially inverting due to the furnace.

An investigation was subsequently opened. During the investigation, the concern was replicated, which led to engineering corrective action on October 7th. The Product Safety Committee met on November 5, 2025, and decided the issue presented an unreasonable risk to safety and the recall process was initiated.

Remedy

Dealers will install a panel to separate the cooktop and furnace, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed December 22, 2025. Owners may contact Winnebago customer service at 1-574-825-5280 Ext. 5220. Winnebago’s number for this recall is CAM0000046.
