What happened

Outdoors RV Manufacturing is recalling certain 2013 and 2014 model trailers—including Creek Side, Timber Ridge, Wind River, and Black Stone models—manufactured during specific periods between February and May 2013. The affected trailers have Dometic-brand power awning motors with screws that may shear due to a design change, which could cause the awning to unfurl unexpectedly while the vehicle is parked or being driven, posing a risk of personal injury or vehicle crash.

Owners were notified starting August 26, 2013, and should not drive their vehicle until repairs are completed. Dometic staff will replace the affected motors with a different design. Owners can contact Outdoor RV at 1-541-624-5500 or Dometic at 1-888-447-0003 for more information and to arrange repairs.

Hazard

If the motor assembly screws shear, it is possible that the awning can unfurl unexpectedly, either while the vehicle is at rest or while in transit, increasing the risk of personal injury or a vehicle crash.

What should I do?

Outdoor RV began notifying owners on August 26, 2013 and Dometic staff will replace the affected motors with motors of a different design. Owners may contact Outdoor RV at 1-541-624-5500 or Dometic at 1-888-447-0003 for more information. Owners are being instructed not to drive their vehicle until repairs can be performed.
