EQUIPMENT:RECREATIONAL VEHICLE/TRAILER
- The defect
- Riverside RV (Riverside) is recalling certain 2023 Riverside Retro, Intrepid and Xplorer 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 repair or replace the awnings, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed October 10, 2022. Owners may contact Riverside customer service at 1-260-499-4511.
- 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 1,169 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 60% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 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.
Riverside vehicles have been recalled over the equipment 3 times before this, most recently in December 2019 as 19V920000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
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 Riverside RV with NHTSA on October 8, 2022 as campaign 22V755000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
