In or about March, 2022, Thorโ€™s VSRC Office contacted WinnebagoeBay logo to request information concerning any โ€œhigh volume or irregular pattern of warranty claimsโ€ with the SDS2 cooktop. WinnebagoeBay logo reviewed warranty data and did not identify any high volume or irregular patterns with SDS2 warranty claims; this was reported back to Thorโ€™s VSRC Office;

In or about April 2022, WinnebagoeBay logo identified social media posts from a customer referring to a cooktop concern,

In or about April 2022, WinnebagoeBay logo opened an investigation. As part of the investigation a new data analysis was initiated. The April 2022 investigation did not find any unreasonable risk to safety:

April 28, 2022, Suburban ManufacturingeBay logo Co. issued recall 22E-035 specifically for Escape RV; WinnebagoeBay logo was not notified of this recall;

In or about August 2022, investigation reviews installation records from WinnebagoeBay logo assembly technicians and found no concern;

October 2022, WinnebagoeBay logo identified a social media post where a consumer had identified a propane gas leak on a Suburban SDS2 cook top which appeared to be consistent with issue described in 22E-035 recall.
