Defect Description:
STRUCTURE:BODY
Potential Consequences:
WHILE DRIVING THE RV, THE WINDOW ABOVE THE SINK SEPARATED. THE WINDOW IS DOUBLE PANED. THE OUTER GLASS PULLED AWAY AND WAS FLAPPING, CAUSING THE INTERIOR GLASS TO ALSO START PULLING AWAY. WE WERE ON A STRETCH OF HIGHWAY THAT WAS BUSY WITH TRUCKS, APPROX 6:30PM (DARK), 2 LANES EASTBOUND I-40 IN CALIFORNIA. THERE WERE NO EXITS FOR 20-25 MILES AFTER THE INCIDENT BEGAN. THE WINDOW CONTINUED TO BANG AND PULL AWAY THE ENTIRE DRIVE. THE PULL FROM THE WIND THREATENED TO COMPLETELY SEPARATE THE WINDOW ASSEMBLY FROM THE RV. THE HIGHWAY SHOULDER WAS NARROW WITH A DROP OFF SO WE DID NOT PULL OVER AS THIS WOULD ALSO NOT BE A SAFE SOLUTION.
