Our driver's side window has fogged up to the point where you can not see the review mirror clear enough and has now become a safety issue. The windows are made by se-g1 and the replacement is very costly. We also have other windows starting to fog up and will need to be replaced.

Visibility · at 12,000 miles · reported Jan 27, 2010
There was no accident. The windows on the coach fog up and it is insulated glass and it is between the two pieces of glass and you can not see the rear view mirrors . Fleetwood has known of the problem but will do nothing about it. A couple of people have had them replaced under warranty after they complained to hi way magazine. I have had the right door glass replaced because you could not see out of it and it would not clear up unless in the right weather conditions. I have talked to other owners of the same type of coach and they have the same problem and get the same answer from fleetwood…
