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�
