The contact owns a 2022 Fleetwood Frontier RV. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the passenger’s side window located next to the entry door was loosened and exposed. The window was a single-pane, frameless model measuring approximately 24X12 inches, which opened from the bottom by a cranking mechanism. Although the window was cranked shut, the wind pressure caused the window to shake violently, almost ripping the window from the frame of the RV. The entry door was not properly fitted to the body of the RV. The contact stated that the cargo bay doors located at the rear of the RV were loosened and unstable. Upon inspection, the contact discovered that the rear bay doors were constructed out of particle board and had only one screw holding the door in place. The contact stated that the doors were exposed to the elements, completely open to the engine compartment, and showed signs of water intrusion. Additionally, the contact stated that none of the exterior doors or door hinges were properly sealed. The dealer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 36,000.
