So does EVERYONE who has bought these. Read the forums. THOR will not provide me a copy of paperwork of what they’ve…

   The Awning extends and retracts several times in a row, at about 1 foot extension, on intermittent occasions. If it goes fully out at highway speeds it could release from the van and potentially hit another vehicle, causing serious damage up to and including death. Thor has not issued a recall on this vehicle but other vehicles (Travato) with this same Awning have been recalled. This is an accident waiting to happen, actually it has happened numerous times already.
