Dometic 9100 Power Awning Recall.

Just received this notice from Dometic today at my dealership.
The recall is for the electric motor used on OEM awnings installed from the factory.

If your coach was produced between February 13, 2013, serial #305xxxxxx through April 9, 2013, serial #314xxxxxx and has a Dometic power awning, you may want to check with Dometic.
The issue is that the awning could deploy either standing still or while driving.

This recall may also apply if you had your awning motor replaced around the same time.

Call 1-888-943-4908 for information.

    This comes from the news article recall notice:

    The motor powered awnings and awning motor service kits were manufactured between February 13, 2013 and April 9, 2013.

    Note it says awnings and awning motor service kits manufactured during the affected dates, not that the coach itself was manufactured during the dates.
