2011 GEORGETOWN UNITS WITH SPECIFIED INTERIOR FABRIC ARE RECALLED PER RECALL 10V-595...DEFECTIVE FABRIC WAS FOUND IN BEDROOM WINDOW VALENCES/DRAPES, BEDSPREAD, PILLOWS & HEADBOARD...doesn't look like a big thing...I'm calling dealer for replacement appointment.

That is interesting. We have a new 360f that we havn't taken home yet...it. How would we know if our unit was one of these units needing the fix.

FOREST RIVER IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2011 GEORGETOWN CLASS A MOTOR HOMES FOR FAILING TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY NO. 302, "FLAMMABILITY OF INTERIOR MATERIALS". THE FABRICS USED IN WINDOW TREATMENTS, WINDOW VALANCES, DRAPERY, AND BED SPREADS ARE NOT TREATED WITH FLAME RETARDANT. Consequence:
FAILURE TO HAVE THE FABRIC TREATED WITH FLAME RETARDANT IN THE EVENT OF A FIRE COULD CAUSE THE FABRIC TO BURN FASTER INCREASING THE RISK OF INJURIES TO OCCUPANTS. Remedy:
FOREST RIVER WILL BE SENDING REPLACEMENT PARTS TO THE DEALERS WITH FABRIC ALREADY TREATED WITH FLAME RETARDANT. THIS SERVICE WILL BE PERFORMED FREE OF CHARGE. THE MANUFACTURER HAS NOT YET PROVIDED AN OWNER NOTIFICATION SCHEDULE. OWNERS MAY CONTACT FOREST RIVER AT 1-574-206-7605.

This does sound like a big deal. The notice is dated November 16, so my unit shouldn't be affected. Call your dealer if you are unsure.
