Summary: where do I start, except everyone IS safe. driving to disney with the family for christmas (daughter joining us from college) and we suddenly hear a loud bang from the cab; the starlight window blew out/ off. we were the only ones on the road (doing about 50 mph) and nothing hit us, looks like the glue/seal just gave way! The other thing I was surprised there were sharp glass shards in the camper and the glass did not shatter into small squares one typically sees with safety glass. honestly, it could have been worse if the glass panel would have blown inward it would have hit one of my daughters; as it IS, they were hit with small shards of glass.*dt*dt*jb

- 10197609It has been determined that on certain Mercedes-Benz Sprinter vehicles, the hydraulic power steering return line hoses might detach at their connection points under certain operating conditions, which could cause hydraulic fluid to leak, resulting in the loss of power steering assist. If the hydraulic power steering hose detaches, the driver will still have manual steering functionality, but increased steering effort will be needed, particularly at low speeds. Sudden loss of power steering assist as well as the loss of hydraulic steering fluid to the road surface may increase the risk of a crash. This affects the following Thor Motor Coach products: 2017-2020 Chateau, Chateau Citation, Four Winds, Gemini, Quantum, Siesta, & Synergy; 2018-2019 Compass; 2018-2020 Freedom Elite; 2021 Sanctuary & Tranquility
