WARRANTY AND SERVICE

WARRANTY COVERAGE

When you buy a new Airstream Travel Trailer from an authorized Airstream dealer,

Airstream, Inc., warrants the trailer from defects in material and workmanship as follows:

BASIC WARRANTY PERIOD

This warranty extends for a period of two years from the date of original retail purchase.

ITEMS COVERED

Any part of the trailer or any component equipment installed by the factory is covered

by the basic warranty except the following items, which are not covered:

• Tires

• Batteries

The tire and battery warranties will be handled by their respective service points and

according to their written policy. This limited warranty does not include failure caused

by accident, abuse, normal wear, overload or any cause not attributable to a defect

in original material or workmanship of the trailer or component equipment as installed

by the factory.

LIMITATION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES

All warranties of merchantability and ﬁtness for a particular purpose, whether written or

oral, expressed or implied, shall extend only for a period of two years from the date of

original purchase. There are no other warranties, which extend beyond those described

on the face hereof and which expressly excludes conditions resulting from normal wear,

accident, abuse, exposure or overload. Some states do not allow limitation on how long

an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitations may not apply to you.

AIRSTREAM’S RESPONSIBILITY

The basic Airstream Limited Warranty applies for a period of two years from the

date of original purchase, and the application date of all warranties is that indicated

on the owner’s Limited Warranty. Defects in items covered under this Warranty will

be corrected without cost upon the return, at the owner’s expense, of the trailer or

defective part to an authorized Airstream dealer.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

This warranty covers only defective material and/or workmanship; adjustments are

made at the factory prior to shipment, and rechecked by the dealer prior to delivery to

the customer. Adjustments thereafter become a customer responsibility.

Each Airstream exterior (not including the underside) is clear coated to prevent oxida-

tion. This application is covered by a two-year warranty against peeling. Prolonged

exposure to salt air or industrial fall-out will permit penetration through the coating

material, causing damage to the exterior ﬁnish. Since Airstream, Inc., has no control

over these conditions, it is necessary for the owner to wash and maintain their trailer

as instructed in the Owner’s Manual.

The owner is also responsible for following all recommendations, instructions and pre-

cautions contained in the Airstream Trailer Owner’s Manual and the individual manuals

furnished by the chassis, appliance and other manufacturers.

A - 2

WARRANTY AND SERVICE

INSTALLATIONS NOT COVERED

Airstream, Inc., does not accept any responsibility in connection with any of its trailers

for additional equipment or accessories installed at any dealership or other place of

business, or by any other party. Such installation of equipment or accessories by any

other party will not be covered by the terms of this warranty.

IF REPAIRS ARE NEEDED

If your trailer needs repairs under the terms of the basic Airstream Limited Warranty,

you should:

1. Take your trailer to your selling dealer or other Authorized Airstream Dealer.

2. If the dealer is incapable of making the repair, request that he contact the Service

Administration Department at Airstream, Inc., for technical assistance.

3. If repairs are still not made, the customer should contact:

AIRSTREAM, INC.

419 W. Pike Street - P.O. Box 629

Jackson Center, Ohio 45334-0629

Attention: Owner Relations Department

Furnish the following information:

• The complete serial number of the trailer

• Date of original purchase

• Selling dealer

• Nature of service problem and steps or service, which have been performed.

(The owner may be directed to another dealer at the

owner's expense.)

4. If, after taking the above steps, repairs are still not complete, the Airstream

owner may request the trailer to be brought to the Factory Service Center at the

owner’s expense.

WARRANTY AND SERVICE

DEALER REPRESENTATION EXCLUDED

The full extent of the basic Airstream Limited Warranty is set forth in detail in the

folder, and in the explanation of the basic Airstream Limited Warranty covered in the

Airstream Trailer Owner’s Manual. Airstream Inc. will not be responsible for additional

representations or implied warranties made by any of its dealers to the extent those

representations are not a part of, or are contrary to, the terms and conditions of the

basic Airstream Limited Warranty.

CONSEQUENTIAL AND INCIDENTAL DAMAGES

Airstream, Inc., will not be responsible for any consequential or incidental ex-

penses or damages resulting from a defect. Incidental expenses include, but

are not limited to: travel expenses, gasoline, oil, lodging, meals, telephone tolls,

and loss of work and loss of use of the trailer. Some examples of consequen-

tial damages would be: stained curtains due to rain leaks or delaminated ﬂoor

caused by a plumbing leak. 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.

WARRANTY TRANSFER

The basic Airstream Limited Warranty is transferable to subsequent owners for the

duration of the warranty period. Warranty transfer application forms are available from

your dealer or the Airstream Inc. Service Administration Department.

CHANGES IN DESIGN

Airstream Inc. reserves the right to make changes in design and improvements upon

its product without imposing my obligation upon itself to install the same upon its

products theretofore manufactured.

This warranty gives you speciﬁc legal rights, and you may also have other rights,

which vary from state to state.

EXPLANATION OF AIRSTREAM LIMITED WARRANTY

The Airstream Limited Warranty is detailed on your warranty document.. It is ﬁlled out

by the dealer and presented to the owner during delivery of a new unit. The Limited

Warranty must be presented to a dealer to obtain warranty service. It should be kept in

the trailer during the warranty period.

EXCLUSIONS:

Normal Wear

Items such as tires, water puriﬁer packs, curtains, upholstery, ﬂoor coverings, window,

door and vent seals will show wear or may even wear out within the two 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.

A - 4

WARRANTY AND SERVICE

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 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 neces-

sary 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.

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 infor-

mation on the loading of your trailer, consult your Owner’s Manual or gross vehicle

weight rating plate.

The Airstream axle is manufactured to a tolerance of 0-1½º camber and 0-1/8” toe-in.

These tolerances will only change if the trailer is subjected to abuse, such as dropping

off a sharp berm, striking a curb, or hitting a deep hole in the road. Such damage could

be considered as resulting from an accident which risks are not covered under the

warranty. Abnormal tire wear and/or wheel alignment resulting from such damage is

not covered under the terms of the warranty.

WARRANTY AND SERVICE

A - 5

SERVICE

Before leaving the factory, each and every vital part of the trailer is tested for perfor-

mance. Each test is signed and certiﬁed by an inspector. After the trailer arrives on

your dealer’s lot all of these vital parts and systems are again tested. When you take

delivery of your new trailer you will receive a complete check out.

At that time a speciﬁed list of performance checks on your trailer equipment will be

conducted and any deﬁciencies you have experienced since taking delivery will be

corrected.

Please contact your dealer if you need service. Major service under your Airstream

Limited Warranty is available through our nationwide network of Airstream Dealer

Service Centers. An up-to-date list of Dealer Service Centers has been provided with

your new trailer. This list is current as of the date of this publication.

Occasionally dealerships change, or new dealers are added who may not appear

on this list. For this reason, it is suggested that you contact your local dealer from

time to time and bring your list up to date. He can also provide you with additional

copies if you need them. An up to date list is also available on WWW.AIRSTREAM.

COM. ALL CENTERS OPERATE ON AN APPOINTMENT BASIS FOR THE UTMOST

EFFICIENCY.

When you require service from the Airstream Factory Service Center, or a Certiﬁed

Dealer Service Center, please contact the service manager for an appointment, and

kindly inform him if you are unable to keep the appointment date or wish to change it.

Service may be arranged at the Factory Service Center by contacting the Service

Coordinator at

Airstream Factory Service Center

REPORTING SAFETY DEFECTS

If you believe that your vehicle has a defect, which could cause a crash or could cause

injury or death, you should immediately inform the National Highway Trafﬁc Safety

Administration (NHTSA) in addition to notifying Airstream, Inc.

If NHTSA receives similar complaints, it may open an investigation, and if it ﬁnds that a

safety defect exists in a group of vehicles, it may order a recall and remedy campaign.

However, NHTSA cannot become involved in individual problems between you, your

dealer, or Airstream, Inc.

To contact NHTSA you may either call the Auto Safety Hotline toll-free at 1-888-327-

4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or write to: NHTSA, 400 Seventh ST, S.W., Washington,

D.C. 20590.

You can also obtain other information about motor vehicle safety from the Hotline or

view the NHTSA Website: www.safercar.gov
