2014 THOR MOTOR COACH TUSCANY XTE Complaints

The driver's side window became partially detached while driving on the highway at 60 mph. It threatened to completely detach and fall to the roadway. I was forced to pull over onto the shoulder of I-75 northbound in Florida and tape the window onto the body of the vehicle using Monster tape. The problem was confirmed and repaired at Suncoast Designers, 15050 Labor Place, Hudson FL. However, it occurred 2 more times and has (hopefully) been permanently re-attached this last time by using a different adhesive. This style window is referred to as "frameless". I have reason to suspect that there is a substantial low pressure or suction effect at that corner of the vehicle at highway speeds. There was no warning of any kind prior to the sudden partial detachment of the window. I am reporting this event in case it has occurred to others and needs to be discontinued or modified on future similar vehicles at risk.

THE WINDSHIELD WIPER ON THE DRIVERS SIDE CAME OFF WHILE DRIVING IN THE RAIN. TALKING WITH OTHER OWNERS OF THE SAME TYPE MOTORHOME THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM. THE ONLY SOLUTION I'VE FOUND IS TO TIE ONE END OF A ROPE AROUND THE WIPER BLADE AND AND THE OTHER AROUND THE MIRROR SUPPORT ARM SO WHEN THE WIPER FALLS OFF IT CAN BE RECOVERED OTHERWISE IT WILL BE LOST. PULLING OVER IN HEAVY TRAFFIC, SUCH AS DOWNTOWN ATLANTA OR ANY BIG CITY, TO REPLACE/REATTACH A WIPER IS NOT A SAFE PROCEDURE AND DRIVING IN THE RAIN WITHOUT A WIPER IS ALSO NOT SAFE. THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM AND NOT A ONE TIME OCCURRENCE.
