What is wrong
Lippert Components, Inc. (LCI) is recalling certain 3000 Series Frameless windows sold for installation into recreational vehicles. The adhesive bond between the glass and the metal hinge frame of the frameless crank out vent windows may fail which could then allow the glass to detach and fall out.
What can happen
If the window glass detaches while the vehicle is moving it could become a projectile, increasing the risk of injury or a crash.
The fix
Recall repairs are free of charge.
LCI will notify the affected RV manufacturers whose dealers will inspect the frameless windows for proper adhesive bond strength, replacing the windows as necessary, free of charge. LCI did not provide a manufacturer notification schedule. Owners may contact LCI customer service at 1-574-537-8900 or via email by using customerservice@lci1.com. LCI's number for this recall is 228-01-2020.

A recall means the maker found a safety problem and offers a free fix; it does not mean every unit has the problem. Units affected are as reported by the company. Popular models sell more and so have more recalls and complaints. Official public data; texts are shortened. A dealer can tell whether a single vehicle still needs the repair.
