Knaus Tabbert Ag Boxstar: Window Could Detach
Recall Summary KNAUS TABBERT AG is recalling 351 BOXSTAR caravans because UV radiation can damage the bonding between the inner and outer window panes, potentially causing windows to loosen or detach. Owners may notice early signs of this problem, but if left unaddressed, a window could eventually come off. The manufacturer will install a security device between the window panes or replace defective windows entirely.

- Reason
- UV radiation can cause the bonding between the inner and outer pane of the window to fail. Early indications of this debonding should be identified by the owner or at service.

Remedy: Recall all affected caravans to install an improved security device between panes or if the window has failed then replace the defective windows.
