WARRANTy AND SERvICE
Accident
We strongly urge our dealers and customers to inspect the trailer upon re-
ceipt 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.
Exposure
Not unlike a car, the steel parts of a trailer can and will rust if subjected to pro-
longed 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 foresee-
able secondary damage from rain, plumbing leaks, and the natural accumula-
tion 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.
Overload
Damage due to loading, either beyond capacity or to cause improper
towing because of improper balance, is beyond Airstream’s responsibility.
The Airstream trailer is engineered to properly handle the gross vehicle load
rating on the certification label. Load distribution has a definite effect upon
the towing characteristics and attitudes of the trailer. Level hitch installations
are a necessity, and very important on a tandem axle trailer. There are limits
to the amount of load that can be safely transported depending upon speed
and road conditions, and reasonable cause to believe these factors have
been exceeded could void the Airstream warranty. For additional information
