CAREFREE AWNING
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Carefree of Colorado is recalling certain Latitude Awnings styles GX and G that were manufactured between April 10, 2014, and November 4, 2014. These awnings were installed as original equipment on motorhomes by various vehicle manufacturers. The screws that attach the lateral arm brackets to the mounting brackets may not have been manufactured to specification, which could cause them to fail and allow the supporting bracket to fail as well.
If the bracket fails, the awning could fall and potentially strike and injure someone beneath it. According to the recall, owners will be notified by their vehicle manufacturer with instructions on how to obtain a free remedy. Affected consumers should contact their vehicle manufacturer for more information, or they may contact Carefree customer service at 1-800-621-2617.
