Winnebago Industries, Inc. is recalling approximately 6,540 of its 2019-2023 Travato motorhomes because the retractable awning can extend on its own while the vehicle is moving. This unexpected movement can create a dangerous road hazard or distract the driver, significantly increasing the risk of a crash. To fix this, dealers will install a dedicated on/off switch for the awning and update the system's firmware at no cost to owners.
The awning may deploy unexpectedly during transit, potentially striking other vehicles, pedestrians, or roadside objects, or causing the driver to lose control due to the sudden distraction and change in vehicle width.
Install an on/off switch and update firmware
