STRUCTURE
- The defect
- KZRV, L.P. (KZRV) is recalling certain 2022-2023 Connect, Confluence, Durango, Durango Gold, Sonic, Sportsmen, Sportsmen Classic, Sportsmen Sportster, SportTrek, Spree Escape, and Venom travel trailers. The electric retractable awning has a welded seam on the fabric that may separate, potentially allowing the awning to drop beyond normal operation.
- What it can cause
- An awning that drops or extends beyond normal operation can increase the risk of injury.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will inspect and replace the awnings as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed September 19, 2022. Owners may contact KZRV customer service at 1-800-768-4016 ext. 154 or 153. KZRV's number for this recall is KZ-2022-04.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup.

How this campaign compares
At 4,449 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 74% of the 16,112 vehicle recalls with a published size filed from 1995 up to this one. The middle campaign among them covers 480. It covers model years 2022 to 2023, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2022, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
KZRV vehicles have been recalled over the structure 4 times before this, most recently in January 2018 as 18V063000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 6 other recalls published here, the newest being: 22V756000 (structure), 22V289000 (equipment), 22V161000 (trailer hitches), 21V992000 (equipment).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by KZRV, L.P. with NHTSA on July 29, 2022 as campaign 22V552000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
