Broken motor on awning

[maolsen58]

We have a 2021 Paradigm Alliance. The motor that was originally put on the big awning was put on wrong, so it was replaced within the first year. Here we are at year 3 and the motor quit working. We now have to replace it.
Has anyone else had an issue with the motor on the awning?

we have a 2021 340. Our awining has also quit but I've yet to get up there to replace the motor. (back issues I suspect it is the motor so I purchased a replacement motor on line for about $40. w)e see this winter if I can put it on at a southern campground somewhere warm.
I priced out lipperts motors and they cost tooooo much.

We have a 2022 Paradigm 295MK with one dead awning motor (it has two awnings).
I agree completely with @Mazboy that the Lippert motors are way too expensive. I have not yet purchased one of the cheaper replacement motors, but I plan to, it can't be any poorer quality than the one Lippert put in!
Furthermore, I seem to be seeing quite a few people complaining about awning motor failures, I wonder if this should be some kind of recall. I doubt that it will ever happen, but perhaps it should!?

Ours is a 372RK. I love it. But, they do need to work on the awning motors for sure. It would be nice to have a recall on Them!
Thanks for all the responses, it's interesting to see how many others are having the same issue.
