The issue
Issue: On certain RV trailers and motorhomes equipped with frameless windows, the adhesive that attaches the vented portion of the windows may fail. If this happens, the glass could separate and fall from the motorhome or trailer. Safety Risk: A window that detaches from the vehicle could create a road hazard for others and increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Action: Forest River will notify owners by mail and instruct you to bring your vehicle to an authorized dealer or service center to inspect and replace the vent window glass, as required.
Description (français)
Problème : Sur certaines roulottes de camping (VR) et autocaravanes équipées de vitres sans cadre, l'adhésif qui tient en place la section du déflecteur d'air de la vitre pourrait se décoller. Si cela se produisait, la vitre pourrait se séparer et tomber de la roulotte ou de l'autocaravane. Risques pour la sécurité : Une vitre qui tombe d'un véhicule pourrait poser un danger pour les autres usagers de la route et accroître le risque d'accident. Mesures correctives : Forest River doit aviser les propriétaires par la poste et leur demander d'amener leur véhicule chez un concessionnaire ou à un centre de service autorisé pour inspecter la vitre du déflecteur d'air et effectuer le remplacement au besoin.
