   I own a 2020 Winnebago View 24D that has a curbside awning system by Carefree that is identical to the awning referenced in the NTHSB Recall Notice 22V-695000.

This happened to us on a trip recently and we were 350 miles from home. We had to literally tie the door down with ratcheting straps to keep it from flying open on the highway. The passenger…
