FIRST I NOTICED THE BEDROOM WINDOW FOGGING UP. SERVICE FOLKS TOLD ME THE SEAL WAS BROKEN, AND ONLY OPTION WAS TO REPLACE IT. I HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY, BUT WINDOWS APPARENTLY ARE NOT COVERED. THEY ESTIMATED $800 TO FIX WINDOW. I DECIDED I COULD LIVE WITH IT. BUT, THEN, ONE AFTER ANOTHER, THE OTHER WINDOWS HAVE LOST THEIR SEAL, AND ALL OF THEM ARE NOW CLOUDY. NO ONE WILL ASSUME ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS DEFECT. WHEN YOU BUY A QUARTER OF A MILLION DOLLAR RV, IT SEEMS THAT THE WINDOWS SHOULD NOT FAIL. MY RV HAS BEEN STORED INSIDE SINCE PURCHASING NEW. THE RV HAS ABOUT 20,000 MILES ON IT. THERE ARE MANY BLOGS ABOUT FLEETWOOD RV'S AND ALL OF THEM ARE HAVING WINDOW FAILURE ISSUES. N

MY CONCERN BEGAN LATE 2006 AFTER THE PURCHASE OF MY 2006 RV FLEETWOOD PROVIDENCE IN DECEMBER.

I OWN A 2006 FLEETWOOD PROVIDENCE MOTOR HOME WITH A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. THE DUAL PANE WINDOWS ARE OBSTRUCTED BY A GASEOUS FOG DUE TO THE FAILURE OF THE SEAL BETWEEN THE GLASS. I WOULD ACCEPT THAT ONE, POSSIBLY TWO DUAL PANE WINDOWS MAY LOSE THEIR SEAL AND FOG OVER TIME BUT EVERY WINDOW ON THIS VEHICLE IS FOGGED TO THE POINT OF MAKING IT UNSAFE TO DRIVE. I HAVE DIFFICULTY SEEING TRAFFIC THROUGH THE SIDE VIEW MIRRORS. MY VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY BUT AT 5 YEARS AND 19,000 MILES BUT THERE IS NOTHING AN OWNER CAN REASONABLY DO TO "MAINTAIN" THE WINDOWS TO KEEP THIS FROM HAPPENING. BASED ON LIMITED RESEARCH OF OWNER SITES AND INDUSTRY PUBLICATIONS, THIS PROBLEM IS NOT LIMITED TO FLEETWOOD ALON

I HAVE A 2006 FLEETWOOD PROVIDENCE RV. ALL OF MY STATIONARY WINDOWS ARE "FOGGING UP" WHICH IS A NUISANCE IN ITSELF. HOWEVER, MY BIGGEST CONCERN IS THE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW. IT IS SO FOGGY I'M UNABLE TO CLEARLY SEE MY SIDE REARVIEW MIRROR. BOTH TIMES I'VE CONTACTED FLEETWOOD REGARDING THIS ISSUE I WAS TOLD THERE'S NOTHING THEY CAN DO ABOUT IT. IT IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE THAT ALL OF MY FLEETWOOD FRIENDS ARE CONCERNED ABOUT. *TR
