I am the owner of a 2022 Winnebago Ekko. My vehicle is subject to NHTSA Recall 24V-024 (Winnebago Campaign #181) regarding the Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system. I am writing to request your guidance on how to proceed, as I am currently unable to obtain the required safety remedy.

The following morning I plugged the Balmar unit back in and the whining sound and burning smell

DETAILS: RV has a LP hose that routes above the passenger side rear tires from the propane tanks to other locations of the RV.
