The Axis/Vegas models are selling well so I don't think they'll be discontinuing them anytime soon. And I don't know if the 10 year rule applies to RV manufacturers, but if the windshields are no longer available from Thor, I'm sure that someone else will step up and make a replacement.
There is no "ten year rule" in general. Manufacturers are required to make good on their warranties, but beyond that there's no mandate that spare/replacement parts be made available. Chevrolet would not sell a new transmission pan (which hung down in the front and was relatively exposed to damage) for the Prizm I used to own about eight years after it was made; luckily for me, the identical part was readily available from Toyota for the Corolla, which of course was the same car. A friend with an Aveo of the same vintage that needed a replacement oil pan at around the same time was not so fortunate; I think she eventually managed to find and get one shipped from a junkyard hundreds of miles away.
