I have an Elddis Crusader which I bought new about a year ago after about 6 months some white spots started to become visble in the front central window about quarter of the way down in an arc shape about a foot long. We could not clean them off and seemed to be on the inside of the window between the sealed units. It looked like a manufacturing fault. The dealer changed the window about 3 months ago for a new one and now the new window is starting to do exactly the same in the same place.

I will be contacting the dealer again this week to aske them to replace it again, bt was wondering if any one else has found this problem either on an Elddis or other make. I think I rmember reading something from a reader enquiry in one of the monthly mags from somebody else with a similar problem.

Has anyone on ukc had this problem?   

we have the same van as you and dont seem to have this problem, a few others but not this one.

mine are mainly around the nosewieght that we cant get high enough and the water tank having to be filled to use the taps, you cant run from just the barrel so on rallies its going to drain the battery before you even start anything due taking 3 barrels to fill everything

Hi we have had are front center window changed, we have an elddis caravan 2008,

i contacted explorer group and was told it is a manufacture proplem by polyplastics,

the dealer also new of the problem i was ask by the dealer for the number on the window, and it was replaced under warranty.

Thanks everyone, I will call the dealer again tomorrow and ask them to order another one (Jennifern) where is the date normally put on the window?

I thought it odd that when I contacted our dealer late last year, they just ordered a new window in without even asking to see the van, of course they did not mention that it was a known fault. What is annoying is that I first mentioned the fault to them around October so when they ordered the new window in it would have been after the September 09 version Mk 3 was released.

We have a sort of "crazing" around the catches and what looks like a lightning flash, all on the front windows, is this the same sort of problem?

Hmm, sounds a little different too.   As I said above, it has only been the centre front windows that have been affected.
