27" front television fell out of cabinet while driving. Struck driver, no injuries. Motor home is 2002 monaco diplomat, coach # [xxx], VIN [xxx]. Top of tv is tipped out about 4" and held in place by two screws in lower rear and two brads on a folding front trim leaf. Apparently the screws worked loose and the trin leaf collapsed allowing the fall. There are warning signs, if the user knows them, but no way for the user to re-tighten the retaining screws. Had this fallen differently, there could have been severe injury, or an accident. This assembly is also used on holiday rambler motorhomes. *nm updated 07/16/2012 *js information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6)
