What owners report
Short excerpts of NHTSA complaints in the original wording. These are owner statements not verified by NHTSA; personal data removed.
My passenger side window is fogged up ,to the extent that it prevents me from seeing approaching traffic on the passenger side,while using the rear view mirror on that side of the rv. I believe this could have been prevented by using a safety glass instead of the thermopaine glass presently used.
When I had it replaced, the glass tech said he has replaced several winnebago motorhome, windshields with the same type of glass failure and it is caused buy the water coming off of the roof and setting behind the rubber molding which surrounds the windshield, rusting the metal clips which hold the molding in place.
The rear passenger side dual tire blew out while driving. The dealer stated that the side wall ripped out. Please provide any additional information.
Two lower corners of the slideout are extremely sharp, causing consumer injury to upper left cheekbone into the scalp requiring 25 stiches.
Driving at 55mph vehicle shimmied violently and almost lost steering control. Tt
