What's wrong?
The affected 2011 Forest River Georgetown is a Class A motor home with fabric window treatments, window valances, drapery, and bed spreads inside the living area. Those materials are supposed to meet Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 302, which sets flammability requirements for interior materials. Flame retardant treatment helps slow how fast fabric burns if it is exposed to fire.
On these motor homes, the listed interior fabrics were not treated with flame retardant. That means the fabric does not meet the required flammability standard. The defect is in the material treatment, not in a switch, wiring harness, or moving mechanical part, so normal driving does not create a separate symptom to feel or hear.
There is no warning sign before failure. The fabric can look normal, hang normally, and still lack the required flame retardant treatment.
