Class action suits of most kind can have unintended results.

In this case Hehr makes the vast majority of rv windows in the states. Every owner of any rv could be included in a settlement. Hehr will settle out of court because of the cost of defending their engineering and manufacturing. It will probably cost them millions, but it will still be cheaper for them. Or they close thge doors and walk off.

The money obtained will first pay the lawyers expences. Then their fees. Then every rv owner with a Hehr product will split the remainder. A few dollars apiece at best. Plus when you join the law suit you automatically forfit any and all other claims.

At this point everyone would be far better off working the best deal they can and leave the lawyers sleep.

I really wonder what percentage of their products fail. I have personally owned 2 DRV units and 2 other brands. Put a lot of miles on them all and never had a failure. I may be just lucky. Don't know.
Any one have any figures?
