The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration issued a recall for 2007-2011 Foretravel/Nimbus and 2007-2010 Foretravel/Phenix motorcoaches. Some of the Se-Gi vented windows in these motor coaches have experienced an issue where the adhesive bond on some panels between the glass portion and the hinge may de-bond, allowing the panel to detach and fall from the vehicle. If this happened it could cause personal injury or lead to a vehicle accident.
