Egress Window Latch Search

Need some help folks. On our last trip my son broke the red plastic latch off the end of the egress window lock rod. Does anyone know where I can purchase a new rod assembly?

Thanks

  • On our new Rockwood TT we have an egress window in the bedroom. The pix shown above looks like the same thing.....where would they put that in a HTT??? You might contact FR and see if it's the same and possibly get it from them. For future reference, the tech who did our PDI told us DO NOT pull on that handle since the entire window is designed to drop straight to the ground so you can get out quickly. Probably, even though your trailer was not a FR product, you can contact the Millersburg, IN facility. Can't remember the person's name in that dept, but she's very good and if it's not what you need, she may be able to steer you in the right direction. Also, remind DS that if he touches it again, something very unpleasant is going to happen.....whatever that may be. The tech told us it's a real stinker to replace.
  • We just came back from our vacation and was in Elkhart, IN. I had some info about RV places there, but don't have it in front of me right now (I'm in my home and info is in RV). Contact the visitors center or chamber of commerce in Elkhart. I know there were 2 places that advertised they had replacement parts. Good luck.
  • a pic of what you're talking about, might help.

    for a trailer as old as yours and as rare, you'll probably have a hard time because i've never seen what you are talking about, on newer hybrids.

    look for the manufacturer of the window and call them.
