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
2020 Classic
General Information
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 information on
the loading of your trailer, consult this Owner's Manual
or gross vehicle weight rating plate�
The axle is manufactured to a tolerance of 1-degree
camber and 1/8 in� 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, of 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�

Service

Before leaving the factory, every vital part of the trailer
is tested for performance� Each test is signed and
certified by an inspector. After the trailer arrives on
your dealer's lot, all 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�
