I parked my 2022 Coachman Nova 20C at the Scenic Overlook on [XXX] at approx 11:15 AM. As I opened the right side sliding door, the CAREFREE, Freedom RM, awning spontaneously extended.

This vehicle is the chassis for a 2022 Coachmen Nova RB. When driving down the road, my Carefree van awning rapidly extended about 8-10 ft on its own. Fortunately, I was on my street and able to drive and park in my driveway. There were no other cars close on the road or it could have caused a serious accident or hit a pedestrian walking along the road. The awning would not retract and I had to contact a technician to manually retract the awning, zip tie it to the van and I removed the fuse. This has happened to a multitude of other camper van owners with this chassis. It is a serious issue and I encourage you to investigate this matter before a fatality or serious injury occurs.
