This might be something worth checking, although I would like to think the glass installer would have noticed something like that.

I have a 2006 Travel Supreme Mid Engine, I bought if from RV World also know as Terrytown RV Superstore, Division Ave, Grand Rapids, Michigan, it's been a nightmare ever since i drove it home to California.
For starters we drove rt 80 and heard a whistling noise at right corner of passenger window, couldn't find anything,
I was told by Sales Person Evan Shepard to leave generator running until i reach warmer weather.
When we looked at the Coach it was on 50amp ground power, never tested generator solo with a load on it, found out after i got home generator failed, solar panels on roof aren't strong enough to hold charge to battery.
Every trip battery will not hold charge off generator so refrigerator we lost all food.
On another trip within 2 weeks after purchase, we brokedown in Oregon, GoodSam came to rescue and the service tech told us the entire front end where air tanks are located is heavily rusted, recommended we not go over the Mountains of Oregon, we took his advise ad drove home not exceeding 40mph, taking 7 hrs to reach California.
I contacted TerryTown RV/RV World and after an extended discussion the best the manager Tom Selius would do, asking me to drive RV back to Michigan
2300 miles and he would give me 20% off Mechanics hourly labor.
I took the RV to Sacramento Truck center Broke down again on my way there, Good Sam again to rescue, lost air to rear suspension, the road technician discovered a trail of fluid, it was a coolant leak, so Trip to Sacramento was out of question for now, after doing walk around of RV before tow, we noticed the Windshield was out of rubber seal on drivers side, we removed it placed in Coach.
also the Garage controls for floating floor had to be re wired
I got offers for this RV, but i'd feel bad if something went wrong, so up to now I haven't taken offers. but you never know...
Again I called Terrytown RV Superstore/ RV World The Owner told me I bought it as is, everyone make mistakes, this was my costly mistake Trusting the word of TerryTown RV/RV World saying they went over entire Coach.
if anyone is considering a future purchase from these people I do my homework, i just don't me reading reviews prob put in by employees.Another joke was after spending well over 100k and most of the day there, TerryTown RV/RVWorld asked if we like lunch, we said sure figuring we're going local restaurant, nope.. they had the worst pizza i ever had delivered.. 100k plus and pizza wow..
Goodluck RV'ers
