What's wrong?
The screen door on a 2015-2016 Airstream Interstate is meant to close across the doorway while the curbside sliding door handles the main entry and exit. When both parts move correctly, the screen door can slide out of the way so occupants can open the sliding door and leave the motorhome.
On affected Interstates, the bottom rubber stop for the sliding door presses against the screen door frame when the screen door is closed. That pressure pinches the screen door tight against the surrounding body structure. With the screen door trapped in place, occupants inside the motorhome can be unable to move it far enough to open the sliding door.
The warning sign is difficulty closing and latching the sliding door when the screen door is already closed. If you notice that bind, treat it as the door system not moving as designed.
Who's affected?
The inclusion list is split by model year and by two component areas: recreational vehicle equipment and the body door.

| 2015 Airstream Interstate | Recreational vehicle/trailer |
| 2015 Airstream Interstate | body structure |

Not every 2015-2016 Airstream Interstate motorhome is on the list. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific motorhome is included.
What's the safety risk?
Difficulty closing and latching the sliding door is the warning sign, especially when the screen door is closed. If the sliding door cannot open during an emergency, occupants have a higher risk of injury because exit is delayed. Schedule the stop installation soon. Repair is free at any franchised Airstream dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2015-2016 Airstream Interstate is included in this recall.
- Contact your nearest franchised Airstream dealer to schedule the free screen-door stop repair so the screen door does not block the sliding door exit.
- Bring the recall notice if Airstream mailed one. If not, reference recall number 15V336 when you call.
- Avoid closing the screen door and curbside sliding door together until the dealer installs the stop.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, an Airstream technician attaches a stop on the screen door so the curbside sliding door stays usable when the screen door is closed. The repair is free under recall 15V336, and parts and labor are covered. The technician should confirm the stop keeps the screen door from trapping occupants inside when the sliding door is closed before returning the motorhome.
