Events That Discharge Airstream’s Obligations
Under This Limited Warranty
Misuse or neglect, accidents, unauthorized alteration,
failure to provide reasonable and necessary
maintenance (see Owner’s Manual), damage caused
by off road use, collision, fire, theft, vandalism,
explosions, overloading in excess of rated capacities,
and use of the Basecamp for commercial, business,
or rental purposes shall discharge Airstream from any
express or implied warranty obligation to repair any
resulting defect�
Legal Remedies
Exclusive jurisdiction for deciding legal disputes
relating to alleged breach of express warranty and
breach of implied warranties arising by operation
of law as well as those relating to representations
of any nature rests in the courts within the state of
manufacture, which is Ohio� Also, this limited warranty
shall be interpreted and construed in accordance
with the laws of the state of Ohio� Any and all claims,
controversies, and causes of action arising out of or
relating to this limited warranty, whether sounding
contract, tort or statute, shall be governed by the laws
of the state of Ohio, including its statute of limitations,
without giving effect to any conflict of law rule that
would result in the application of the laws of a different
jurisdiction�
Airstream Limited Warranty Excludes
Normal Wear
Items such as curtains, upholstery, floor coverings,
window, door, and vent seals will show wear or may
even wear out within the 3-year warranty period,
depending upon the amount of usage, weather, and
atmospheric conditions�
Accident
We strongly urge our dealers and customers to inspect
the trailer upon receipt of delivery for any damage
caused by accident while being delivered to the dealer,
or while it is on the dealer’s lot� Damage of this nature
becomes the dealer or customer’s responsibility upon
acceptance of delivery, unless Airstream is notified
and the person making the delivery verifies the
damage� Glass breakage, whether obviously struck or
mysterious, is always accidental and covered by most
insurance policies�
Abuse
Lack of customer care and/or improper maintenance
will result in early failure for which Airstream cannot be
held responsible�
Chemical Gassing
Chemical gassing is not a “Defect” in your recreational
vehicle and is not covered by the Limited Warranty�
Please follow the recommendations in this manual to
address this concern�
Exposure
Not unlike a car, the steel parts of a trailer can and will
rust if subjected to prolonged exposure to moisture,
salt air, or corrosive air-borne pollutants without
repainting� Aluminum oxidizes when unprotected
under similar conditions, and refinery chemicals of a
sulfurous nature are harmful to finishes if not washed
off periodically� Extremely hot or direct sunlight will
deteriorate rubber and fade curtains and upholstery�
Conditions of this nature, although they may be normal
for the area, are beyond Airstream’s control and
become the responsibility of the owner�
It is the responsibility of the owner to take such
preventative measures as are necessary to maintain
the exterior caulking and sealer of your unit� It is the
responsibility of the owner to use reasonable, prudent
care to prevent foreseeable secondary damage from
rain, plumbing leaks, and the natural accumulation
of moisture in your unit, such as a delaminated
floor, stained upholstery, carpeting, or drapes, mold
formation and growth, furniture damage, etc� Mold is a
natural growth, given certain environmental conditions,
and is not covered by the terms of the Limited
Warranty�
