One of the HEHR windows blew off of the motorhome while driving down I-5 in California. The window shattered. (Fortunately it did not hit the motorhome driving behind us, and fortunately we were in the right lane so it didn't hit anyone else.) We had to go two and a half months driving with no window in that place (the bedroom) - we, of course, blocked it with styrofoam, etc and good old duct tape for the rest of our trip. We checked the rest out upon stopping and there is another one that was pulling off enough that we duct-taped that all tightly so it wouldn't blow off. And at least one more window is loosening up also. These windows are obviously defective in the way that they are inst

I AM THE OWNER OF A 2015 FLEETWOOD BOUNDER 35K. I'VE ENCOUNTERED A PROBLEM WITH THE EMERGENCY EGRESS WINDOWS (2 OF 3) IN THE COACH, WHERE THE METAL CLOSING MECHANISM DETACHES FROM THE WINDOW GLASS. THE WINDOWS ARE MANUFACTURED BY HEHR AND INSTALLED ON NUMEROUS FLEETWOOD RV PRODUCTS. ONCE DETACHED, THE WINDOW MUST BE TAPED SHUT TO PREVENT WATER INGRESS INTO THE COACH, ELIMINATING THE USE OF THE EGRESS WINDOW FOR ITS INTENDED EMERGENCY EXIT FUNCTION. THIS IS THE ONLY SOLUTION, PENDING SOME TYPE OF REPAIR. I'VE MADE NUMEROUS CALLS TO VARIOUS AUTO GLASS INSTALLERS, FLEETWOOD (REV GROUP) AND AN HEHR DISTRIBUTOR WITH NONE BEING ABLE TO PROVIDE A WORKABLE, VIABLE SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM. I'VE A

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FLEETWOOD BOUNDER. UPON TURNING THE KEY, THE STARTER CRANKED BUT THERE WAS NO POWER TO THE ENGINE. THE CONTACT WAS IN THE PROCESS OF HAVING THE VEHICLE TOWED WHEN IT WAS NOTICED THAT THERE WAS EXCESSIVE FUEL LEAKING FROM THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT SQUIRRELS CHEWED THE FUEL LINES AND FURTHER TESTING WAS REQUIRED TO DETERMINE IF THEY COULD PROVIDE A SOLUTION TO PREVENT THE FAILURE. THE DEALER MENTIONED THAT THE FAILURE MAY HAVE IMPACTED THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AND THE ENGINE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND ADVISED THE CONTACT TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

UPON ARRIVING HOME IN SOUTH BEND, INDIANA FROM A TRIP TO SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS THE ENTRY STEPS DID NOT DEPLOY WHEN I OPENED THE DOOR TO STEP OUT. A CLOSER LOOK REVEALED THE STEPS DID NOT DEPLOY BECAUSE WELDS IN TWO CORNERS OF THE BATTERY BOX THAT HOLD THE BATTERY BOX IN PLACE HAD FAILED ALLOWING THE BATTERY BOX TO DROP DOWN ONTO THE STEPS AND SOME WIRES THAT RAN BENEATH IT. THE COACH BATTERY BOX HOLDS TWO 80 POUND DEEP CYCLE BATTERIES. THE BATTERY BOX IS LOCATED INCHES FORWARD T OF LP GAS TANK AND A COPPER GAS LINE. OUR TRIP ENDED PRIOR TO THE FORWARD WELDS FAILING WHICH COULD HAVE RESULTED IN THE BATTERY BOX RUPTURING THE LP GAS TAN. SEE ATTACHED PHOTOS. AFTER I REALIZED WHAT HAD HAPP
