Winnebago Industries, Inc.: Revel Motorhomes Recalled for Unintentional Awning Extension

Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Winnebago is recalling approximately 4,521 of its 2021-2023 Revel motorhomes because the retractable awning can unexpectedly extend while the vehicle is moving. This defect occurs when the awning's electrical system triggers deployment without driver input. To fix this issue, dealers will install a new power switch and a relay to the BT12 control module free of charge to ensure the awning remains retracted during transit.

Risk

If the awning extends while the vehicle is in motion, it can distract the driver or strike other vehicles, pedestrians, or roadside objects, significantly increasing the risk of a crash.
