implied warranties of merchantability on those portions 

of the travel trailer excluded from coverage� There is 

no warranty of any nature made by Airstream beyond 

that contained in this limited warranty� No person has 

authority to enlarge, amend or modify this limited war-

ranty� The dealer is not airstream’s agent� Airstream is 

not responsible for any undertaking, representation or 

warranty made by any dealer or others beyond those 

expressly set forth within this limited warranty� Some 

states do not allow limitations on how long an implied 

warranty lasts, so the above limitations may not apply 

to you�

Disclaimer Of Incidental And Consequential 

Damages

Airstream disclaims any and all incidental and conse-

quential damages, including but not limited to ex-

penses such as transportation to and from dealerships 

and Airstream repair facilities, loss of time, loss of pay, 

loss of use, inconvenience, commercial loss (includ-

ing but not limited to lost profits), towing charges, bus 

fares, vehicle rental, service call charges, gasoline 

expenses, incidental charges such as telephone calls 

and facsimile transmissions, and expenses for lodging 

and moisture damage such as mold and mildew as well 

as rust and corrosion� This disclaimer is independent 

of any failure of the essential purpose of any warran-

ties provided with the travel trailer, and shall survive 

any determination that a warranty failed of its essential 

purpose� Some states do not allow the exclusion or 

limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so 

the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you�

Repair Remedy

Airstream’s sole and exclusive obligation is to repair 

any covered defects discovered within the warranty 

coverage period if: (1) within 10 days of your discovery 

of a defect you notify Airstream OR an authorized 

dealership of the defect; AND (2) you deliver your 

travel trailer to Airstream OR an authorized dealership 

at your cost and expense�

Back-Up Remedy

If the primary repair remedy fails to successfully 

cure any defect after a reasonable number of repair 

attempts, your sole and exclusive remedy shall be to 

have Airstream pay an independent service shop of 

your choice to perform repairs to the defect OR if the 

defect is incurable, have Airstream pay diminution in 

value damages� The repair remedy and the back-up 

remedy must both be exhausted and these remedies 

must fail to fulfill their essential purpose before you 

can seek other legal or equitable remedies for breach 

of this express warranty or for breach of any implied 

Limited Warranty Policy

This Limited Warranty Covers

(i) The first retail owner and any subsequent owners 

(ii) ONLY those portions of a NEW travel trailer not 

excluded under the section “What is Not Covered”, 

when sold by an authorized dealership and used for 

its intended purpose of recreational travel and camp-

ing

; and, (iii) ONLY defects in workmanship performed 

and/or materials used to assemble those portions 

of your travel trailer not excluded under the section 

“What is Not Covered”� “Defect” means the failure of 

the workmanship performed and/or materials used to 

conform with the design and manufacturing specifica

-

tion and tolerances of Airstream� The Limited Warranty 

is transferable and the subsequent owner’s warranty 

coverage period shall be the unexpired balance of the 

original warranty coverage period� A completed copy 

of the Warranty Transfer Form must be submitted to 

Airstream at the time of resale�
When you request and accept the performance of 

warranty repairs under the terms of this Limited 

Warranty, you are accepting all terms of this Limited 

Warranty, including by way of example, warranty 

limitations and disclaimers, the forum selection clause 

and the clause reducing the time period when suit must 

be filed for breach. 
If any term of condition in this limited warranty conflicts 

with your state’s Uniform Commercial Code (“UCC”) as 

interpreted by courts within your state, the provisions 

of your state’s UCC are varied as allowed for by USS 

1-302� 

Coverage Ends

36 Months after the first retail owner first takes delivery 

of the travel trailer from an authorized dealership� 

Any action for breach of this warranty or any implied 

warranties must be commenced not more than 37 

months after breach� Some states do not allow the 

reduction of the time when a breach of warranty claim 

must be commenced, so the reduction in time when a 

breach of warranty claim must be commenced may not 

apply to you� 

Limitation Of Implied Warranties

Implied warranties arising under applicable law, if 

any, including but not limited to implied warranties of 

merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose, are 

hereby limited in duration to the term of this limited 

warranty and are limited in scope of coverage to those 

portions of the travel trailer covered by this limited 

warranty� There are no express warranties or any
