This Notice applies to your vehicle VIN listed above.

 

Dear Forest RivereBay Customer:

 

This notice is sent to you in accordance with the requirements of the Motor Vehicle Safety Act. This notice is also sent to you in accordance with the requirements of the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act. Forest RivereBay – Office of Corporate Compliance (“OCC”) has decided that a defect, which relates to the motor vehicle safety, exists in certain 2020 Coachmen Apex, Cedar Creek, Columbus, Flagstaff, Palomino Hard Side Truck CampereBay, Palomino Soft Side Truck CampereBay, Real-Lite Truck CampereBay, Rockwood, and Palomino Travel Trailers. Also in certain 2020 Sunseeker motorhome recreational vehicles. This is to inform you that your vehicle may contain a defect that could affect the safety of a person.

 

WHAT IS THE DEFECT/NONCOMPLIANCE? 

In certain LipperteBay Components, Inc. 3000 Series frameless windows, there is a potential poor adhesive bond between the hinge extrusion and the latch extrusion to the glass.

 

EVALUATION OF THE RISK TO THE VEHICLE AND OPERATOR(S) RELATED TO THE RECALL.

If the adhesion bond fails where the glass meets the hinge frame, the window glass could potentially detach. If the window glass detaches especially in transit the risk of a crash, property damage, death or injury could occur.

 

WHAT IS FOREST RIVEReBay AND OUR DEALERSHIPS GOING TO DO?

Forest RivereBay is notifying dealerships of the recall. You may have the recall corrected at any Forest RivereBay dealership. However, it is preferable if you have your selling dealership perform the remedy. Forest RivereBay completely covers your cost for the remedy; you will not receive any bill of sale for anything covered under the above recall number.

 

WHAT SHOULD YOU DO?

Please contact your dealer immediately and request a service appointment to schedule the free remedy to inspect and/or replace the glass.  The vehicle Owner is responsible for arranging to have the work completed.  Please state you have been notified by Forest RivereBay of having a recall in process for your vehicle and provide the recall number for the dealership.  It is also helpful to the dealership to have a copy of this letter when you take your vehicle in for the recall remedy.

 

You may also visit www.forestriverinc.com for dealer locations.

 

HOW LONG WILL THE REMEDY PROCESS TAKE?

The estimated time of repair varies. However, the dealership may need to keep your vehicle or schedule an appointment with you for a later date to fit into their regular service schedule.

 

WHAT IF YOU HAVE PREVIOUSLY PAID FOR REPAIRS TO YOUR VEHICLE FOR THIS PARTICULAR CONDITION?

If you have already paid for a repair that is within the scope of this defect under recall, you still need to have this recall inspected and/or performed to ensure the correct parts and procedures were utilized.

Additionally, you may be eligible for a refund of previously paid repairs. Refunds will only be provided for within the scope of this defect under recall.
