These are not confirmed defects, and they are not recalls. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a category with more reports in it is not evidence that a part is defective.

From owner reports, verbatim
The contact owns a 2022 Forest River R POD RV being hauled by a 2006 Ford F-250. The contact stated while driving 50 MPH and hauling the RV, the brake pedal was depressed; however, the RV braking system failed to respond. The contact stated that there was no warning light illuminated. The contact towed the RV trailer to a local RV dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the brake failure might have been with the 2006 Ford F-250. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic to be diagnosed and it was determined that the vehicle and the brakes had operated as designed. The RV braking system was not repaired. The manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. The RV failure mileage was approximately 50.

From owner reports, verbatim
Awning was open to dry after rain. When we came home from lunch, the arms were as low as they can be with the awning completely out of its track. We brought it to RV dealership today. They confirmed the fact that there is a recall on the awning itself.
