What this recall means for you
Certain travel trailers from 2021 and 2022 have a coupler that was improperly welded. The coupler is the part that connects the trailer to the tow vehicle, and a weak weld may allow the trailer to separate from the vehicle while it is being towed.
If the trailer separates from the tow vehicle, the risk of a crash increases. Owners of affected trailers should take this seriously and avoid towing until the issue is checked.
The repair is free. Tiny Idahomes LLC will inspect the coupler and replace it as necessary at no cost to you. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed on June 10, 2022, or you can contact Tiny Idahomes customer service at 1-208-468-0576. You can also check your vehicle identification number (VIN) for any open recalls.
