RECALL

Heads up . Received a recall in today’s mail from FR for my 2016 369xl. Apparently they just realized that the rear emergency escape window is not an escape window. Needs to be reconfigured.
Thank God we didn’t have a need to find out.

Re-call

Do you know if the xl 378 is part of that re-call?

Sorry don’t know, only showed mine. Would probably be worth a call to FR.

If your rig is part of a recall for the rear window not being an escape window...

Would your window NOT have the red release levers to open the window for an emergency escape?

Guess some people have not practiced emergency from their rigs.

Never had a reason to crawl over the bed to check. In a 369 the escape window is over the headboard and the bed is not a walk around. My 4 th mh, and yes I know there is a red lever, but again, can’t be seen unless you were to crawl back there to look.

If you're referring to me we have only had use of our RV twice since purchasing in May the rest of the time it has sat at Camping World waiting for repairs so no we haven't practiced emergency exit from RV because we haven't had the dam thing thank you very much.
