Example complaints
Equipment: “Bought a 2006 Fleetwood Excursion new in 2007 with in 3 years several windows lost their seal. Total of 5 so far including window by driver's seat,causing problems with vision. I contacted Fleetwood who said they had no liability. I contacted a glass company who said that should not have occurred . I have owned cars 40 to 50 years old which did not have this problem . Is there not a standard for glass installed in motorhomes. Thanks for any help here replacement will run 200 to 300 each ,but I think this is a Fleetwood defect.”
NHTSA complaint #10470823, filed 2012-08Visibility (wipers, defrost, mirrors): “The windows started foggy up in my rv and have steady gotten worse, especially the drivers window. At night it's almost impossible to see out of the side mirror due to the fogging of the window. From the many complaints I have read from other rvers, Fleetwood seems to have used inferior windows when the rv was manufactured. I have never received a recall on these windows from Fleetwood for replacement due to the inferior product. …”

This occurred on normal road conditions and during normal steering. The vehicle was taken to the dealership for inspection. Upon inspection, the dealership replaced the steering pump, both front brakes and pads which remedied the problem. The manufacturer was alerted. Updated 3/9/2006 -”
NHTSA complaint #10149871, filed 2006-02, 3,200 milesElectrical system: “Why doesn't Fleetwood safety recall # 06004 show up in the NHTSA databse. Isn't it the same kwikee step & similar wiring problem as Fleetwood's recall # 60220 for similar vehicles. While this recall is called an upgrade noting that the wire is not intended to carry this amount of electrical energy & may burn through and melt , #60220 regards this as a safety hazard.”
