Lippert Retractable Awning: Equipment recall
NHTSA campaign 22E055000 · 73K units potentially affected · filed Jul 5, 2022
What's wrong
Lippert is recalling certain Electric Retractable Awnings, up to 18 feet in length. The welded seam on the fabric may separate, potentially allowing the awning to drop beyond normal operation.
Why it matters
An awning that drops or extends beyond normal operation can increase the risk of injury.
The fix
Lippert will provide inspection instructions and replacement awnings to vehicle manufacturers, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed by August 25, 2022. Owners may contact Lippert customer service at 1-574-538-4514. Lippert's number for this recall is 058-001-2022.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
