2005 Fleetwood Orbit & 2005 Fleetwood Pegasus + 3 more recall: equipment
⚠️ What's wrong
Certain towable travel trailers were built without a bedroom emergency egress window.
💥 The risk
In the event of a fire or other emergency, persons in the front bedroom area must exit through the access door. If the access door is blocked, there is no way out of the trailer, increasing the risk of injuries to the trailer occupants.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will replace the current sliding window with an emergency egress exit window free of charge. The recall began on may 27, 2005. Owners may contact fleetwood folding trailer at 1-814-445-9661.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
