MY 2000 ITASCA SUNFLYER HAS A SERIOUS AND DANGEROUS DESIGN FLAW. MY PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW IS FOGGED UP ,TO THE EXTENT THAT IT PREVENTS ME FROM SEEING APPROACHING TRAFFIC ON THE PASSENGER SIDE,WHILE USING THE REAR VIEW MIRROR ON THAT SIDE OF THE RV. I BELIEVE THIS COULD HAVE BEEN PREVENTED BY USING A SAFETY GLASS INSTEAD OF THE THERMOPAINE GLASS PRESENTLY USED. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH RV'ERS AND SHOULD BE CORRECTED. *TR

MY 2000 ITASCA SUNFLYER,DEVELOPED A CRACK IN THE WINDSHIELD,RUNNING FROM TOP TO BOTTOM, WHILE SETTING IN SECURED STORAGE. WHEN I HAD IT REPLACED, THE GLASS TECH SAID HE HAS REPLACED SEVERAL WINNEBAGO MOTORHOME, WINDSHIELDS WITH THE SAME TYPE OF GLASS FAILURE AND IT IS CAUSED BUY THE WATER COMING OFF OF THE ROOF AND SETTING BEHIND THE RUBBER MOLDING WHICH SURROUNDS THE WINDSHIELD, RUSTING THE METAL CLIPS WHICH HOLD THE MOLDING IN PLACE. THE RUSTING OF THE MOLDING CLIPS CAUSES THE METAL TO EXPAND PLACING STRESS ON THE WINDSHIELD AND A FRACTURE OF THE GLASS RESULTS. THIS COULD BE PREVENTED BY REPLACING THE METAL CLIPS WITH PLASTIC CLIPS AND APPLYING A PLASTIC GUTTER OVER THE WINDSHIELD AVOIDING THE WATER BUILD-UP.THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND SHOULD BE CORRECTED. *TR
