Oops... shame on me for inaccurate reading on my part. That service center still sucks.

Wow...

I'm sorry to hear that this is turning into a game of "What ELSE is gonna happen?"!

Important thing here, "no one was hurt."

God Bless and have a joyful Thanksgiving!

Slowed down because of the cross wind, but took a big gust the SUCKED THE EMERGENCY WINDOW right out of the RV.

It did hit a truck, but fortunately, no one was hurt. Drove the rest of the way with DW holding other window in. Still blowing and still raining.

Isn't RVing just the greatest??????

Now our new 23TR has the designer black garbage bag / duct tape decor. Will start working on that after the insurance call.

Can't wait for the drive home.
If your RV is under warranty, that window should be a warranty item, not an insurance claim item. Same for the truck that got hit with it I would think. It should not have fallen out.

Which window was it, just out of curiosity. We have two emergency windows in our Gemini. I knew the entry door window is just glued in place, but thought the others were a little more securely attached, or I guess I was just hoping.

It was the one over the couch behind the driver. All my years of flying in the Navy, I knew immediately what that sound meant. Just can't believe it happened.

However, a Google search shows it happens more than you think.

Another thing to add to the checklist.
