What's wrong?
The emergency exit window on 2014-2017 Livin' Lite Camplite and Bearcat recreational trailers is meant to give occupants another way out when the main door cannot be used. It should open wide enough for a person to climb through without an exterior part blocking the path. That matters during an emergency when the trailer has to be evacuated quickly.
On certain floor plans, a manual awning arm sits in front of that exit window. The window is not the broken part. The problem is the layout: Livin' Lite installed additional exit windows beyond the required amount and location, and one designated egress window can be blocked or restricted by the awning hardware. If that window is needed for escape, the arm can get in the way.
There is no warning sign before failure. The window and awning arm are visible from outside, but the safety problem shows up when the window has to be used as an emergency exit.

What's the safety risk?
In an emergency, a blocked exit window can keep occupants from escaping and increase injury risk. Treat the exit label and window lever issue as a safety repair, not a cosmetic fix. Repair is free at any franchised Livin' Lite dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2014-2017 Livin' Lite Camplite or Bearcat trailer is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Livin' Lite dealer to schedule the free exit-label removal and window-lever alteration that keeps the blocked awning-side window from being treated as an emergency exit.
- Bring the recall notice if Livin' Lite mailed one. If not, reference recall number 19V307 and Livin' Lite recall LL-2019-01 when you call.
- Check all marked exit windows before using the trailer, and do not rely on a window blocked by the manual awning arm as an escape route until the repair is complete.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Livin' Lite technician removes the EXIT label from the blocked window and changes the window levers from red to black, matching the recall remedy. The recall repair is free, and parts and labor are covered. If you already paid for a related exit-window label or lever repair before the recall work was completed, contact Livin' Lite customer service and ask how to submit documentation under the general reimbursement plan on file.

Frequently asked questions
What is recall 19V307?
Recall 19V307 covers 659 2014-2017 Livin' Lite Camplite and Bearcat recreational trailers with an emergency exit window blocked by a manual awning arm. Livin' Lite dealers will remove the exit label and alter the window levers for free.
What should I do if my 2014-2017 Livin' Lite Camplite or Bearcat is on this recall?
Check your VIN to confirm your specific trailer is included in recall 19V307. If it is, contact a Livin' Lite dealer or Livin' Lite customer service at 1-800-768-4016 to schedule the exit-window repair. Reference recall number 19V307 or LL-2019-01 when you call.
Is the recall repair free?
Yes. Federal recall law requires the manufacturer to repair the defect at no cost, and Livin' Lite's remedy states that dealers will remove the exit label and alter the window levers free of charge.
What is the safety risk?
The risk is blocked emergency escape. In an emergency, occupants who try to leave through the affected window would not be able to use that exit, increasing injury risk. The dealer repair changes the window setup so the blocked exit is no longer presented as an escape route.
What if I bought my Livin' Lite trailer used?
The free recall repair still applies. Recall coverage follows the trailer, not the first owner. Check your VIN to confirm whether your Camplite or Bearcat is included, then contact a Livin' Lite dealer or customer service with recall number 19V307 or LL-2019-01.
