Hello,
Coming back from recent camping trip, on the highway, I heard a bang, looked back and saw awning facing straight up in the air :-(
My bad as I forgot to lock it down (recently the air struts stopped holding the awning up, so I checked if it would hold up or not, which it didn't and then forgot to lock it down. Should be part of the pack up before driving off).
The 4 screws under the awning, securing the gas strut into the fibreglass were ripped out and are now threaded. I have all of the parts though.
Happened to anyone before? Did you go through insurance?
Just after some advice whether if not that bad to consider repair (but I wouldn't know how) or go through insurance (excess is $300)
