RV Awnings Recalled Legal Examiner Dometic USA has initiated a recall and replacement of its 9100 Power Awnings, Weatherpro Awnings and Motor Service Kits and all the affected power awning units.

If you own any awning that is installed on your RV or trailer, please check it for stability and security as well. I previously posted a blog about awnings unfurling, coming off moving RVs and effectively becoming dangerous flying projectiles.
