Consumer Description

1) THE MANUFACTURE, WINNEBAGO INDUSTRIES, EQUIPPED THE DRIVER "COCKPIT" OF THE VEHICLE WITH THERMOPANE WINDOWS WITH AN IDENTIFIED WEAKNESS. THE SEALS IN THE WINDOWS ARE INADEQUATE TO MAINTAIN SEAL INTEGRITY, THUS ALLOWING AIR INFILTRATION. SAID AIR INFILTRATION CAUSED FOGGING OF THE GLASS, AND AN ACCUMULATION OF CONDENSATION WITHIN THE GLASS. 2) THE FOGGING AND ASSOCIATED CONDENSATION CAUSED SIGNIFICANT VISUAL IMPAIRMENT FOR THE OPERATOR. BOTH DRIVER SIDE AND PASSENGER SIDE VISIBILITY IS GREATLY HAMPERED, WHICH IN A MOTORHOME IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN. 3) THE ONLY KNOWN SOLUTION IS TO REPLACE THE EFFECTED WINDOWS. *JB
