Summary

Winnebago Industries, Inc. is recalling approximately 5,084 motorhomes, specifically the 2020-2023 Winnebago View, Winnebago Era, and Itasca Navion models. The retractable awning on these vehicles can unexpectedly extend while the motorhome is in motion. To fix this safety defect, dealers will install a new power switch and a relay to the BT12 module at no cost to the owner. This recall is a follow-up and is superseded by NHTSA recall number 23V-694.
