We had our 2021D Winnebago View recalled due to awning issues. We had the recall done on March 8, 2023. On April 3, 2023 the awning extended out as we were going down the road at 65 mph. We had not used the awning since the recall had been done. It was taken to the Winnebago Factory on May 2, 2023, testing was done and the awning was removed. There must be something else going on because we were told the recall was done correctly.
