390,396XL owners beware!

There seems to be a windshield problem that keeps popping up that Airstream wants to wash there hands of. It seems that after a few years and miles, that the windshield is separating from the end cap. This is a design error on Airstream or their vendors part, but both parties either deny it or fail to correct their oversight. I have seen four motorhomes with this problem and know their must be several out there awaiting this fate including mine.
Airstream has always treated me well and have taken care of my maintenance problems with prudence. It is my belief that AS has decided to abandon us MH owners in favor of trailer owners only. I feel this is a grave mistake on their part.
I will be filing some paperwork with the NHTSB concerning this problem and ask anyone out there that has a 390 or 396 to do the same

Could You Explain A Bit More About Windshield & End Cap?

WE had same problem with a National Dolphin motorhome. What you need to do is take it to a windshield shop...they will remove and reinstall, and it won't happen again.

Please explain more, I have a 350, does this apply to me ?

As far as I know, this problem does not apply to your 350. Only the fiberglass 390MHs.
