What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

THE FRONT CABOVER HAS A TEMPERED GLASS WINDOW MOUNTED AT AN ANGLE OF 20 DEGREES FROM THE VERTICAL WHICH CAN CAUSE THE GLASS TO BREAK WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION.

The risk

IF THE WINDOW SHATTERS, TEMPERED GLASS FRAGMENTS AREFORCED INTO THE MOTORHOME INTERIOR BY AIR PRESSURE CAUSED BY THE MOVING VEHICLE. THESE FRAGMENTS CAN CAUSE PERSONAL INJURY TO OCCUPANTS.

The remedy

DEALERS WILL REMOVE THE EXISTING TEMPERED GLASS CABOVER WINDOW AND REPLACE WITH A LAMINATED SAFETY GLASS CABOVER WINDOW.

A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
