HEATILATOR ELECTRIC FIREPLACE INSERT ELECTRONIC BOARD AND WIRES SHORTED OUT AND BURNED. WE WERE PARKED IN A CAMPSITE AND LUCKILY SITTING THERE AS SPARKS FLEW PLUS WIRES SMOKING. I UNPLUGGED UNIT SO NOTHING ELSE WOULD BURN. IT DID NOT THROW A FUSE OR BREAKER. WIRES WERE JUST HANGING FROM HEATING UNIT. *JS

WINDSHIELD LEAKING DUE TO THE METAL FRAMEWORK THE WINDSHIELDS WERE ATTACHED TO WAS RUSTED AND THE GLASS TO METAL SEAL FAILED. IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT IN A RAIN STORM THE WINDSHIELDS COULD FAIL AND FALL OUT CAUSING A SAFETY HAZARD WHILE DRIVING. *TR
NHTSA complaint 10479258 - Filed Jun 13, 2012Failure Mar 24, 20092,800 milesJacksonville, FLStructure, Visibility
IN 2009, WE DISCOVERED THAT WATER WAS LEAKING FROM THE WINDSHIELD ONTO THE DASHBOARD. TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY APPLIED SILICONE AND APPARENTLY STOPPED THE LEAK TEMPORARILY. NOW AGAIN, IN 2012 THE WINDSHIELD HAS STARTED LEAKING AGAIN AND IT APPEARS THAT THE FRAME THE WINDSHIELD SETS IN IS RUSTED. IT IS OUR UNDERSTANDING, THAT IF THIS IS NOT FIXED THE WINDSHIELD COULD POP OUT AND RESULT IN AN INCIDENT THAT COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS. IN ADDITION, MANY OWNERS OF EITHER WINNEBAGO'S OR ITASCA'S (MADE BY WINNEBAGO) INDICATE THAT RUST IS AN INHERENT PROBLEM WITH THE FRAMES THAT THE WINDSHIELD SETS IN ON WINNEBAGO'S MOTORHOMES. *TR
