The affected awnings may have screws that attach the lateral arm brackets to the mounting brackets that were not manufactured to specification.

TMC will notify owners, and dealers will remove and replace the defective screws, free of charge. The recall began January 23, 2015. Owners may contact TMC customer service at 1-877-500-1020. TMC's number for this recall is RC000097.
