EQUIPMENT
Issued by Jayco, Inc. · Reported Apr 30, 2013 · 2,491 vehicles affected
What's wrong

In these vehicles, if the awning installation sequence is not completely followed, the awning motor may unknowingly become damaged.
Consequence
If motor damage occurs, it is possible that the awning can unfurl unexpectedly, either while the motorhome is at rest or while in transit, increasing the risk of personal injury or a vehicle crash.
Remedy
Jayco will notify owners and dealers will inspect and replace the awning motor free of charge. The recall began on May 23, 2013. Owners may contact Jacyo at 1-800-283-8267 for more information.
