Fogging of si-gi window installed in alfa see-ya motorhome. The front driver side window is fogged to the extent that it is difficult to see the driver side rear view mirror thus making lane changes or other maneuvers requiring the mirror difficult to safely perform.
Fogging of the windows in my motorhome. The windows I use to see out of for side traffic and drives side mirror use and drivers side traffic. I can still see out in the day time but they are getting worse. Si-gi windows are a safety problem,because they restrict the drivers vision from all sides of the motorhome.
Passenger side dual pane windows fogging causing poor visibility when making right hand turn and/or viewing traffic at intersections. Window manufacturer (se-gi) unwilling to replace.
Approximately two months later, the failure recurred on the rear passenger side tire, which disabled the brakes and tail lights. As of july 30, 2007, the tire has not been inspected. The vehicle is a trailer, therefore, the engine size, number of cylinders, fuel system, fuel type, and transmission type do not apply.
