What owners report
Short excerpts of NHTSA complaints in the original wording. These are owner statements not verified by NHTSA; personal data removed.
Well, they have already admitted to forgetting a weld in the aluminum framing which cause another weld to break causing a ton of other problems. They worked on it at the factory and said it was all fixed. It is not.
I have a [XXX] . VIN is [XXX] but doesnât pull anything up when searched. I tried calling to report my concern but I am now making another complaint as what the call taker typed, is not even close to what I reported.
The RV was taken to the dealer, who diagnosed a failure with the frame welding, resulting in damage to the frame. The RV was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, and a case was opened. The failure mileage was unknown. The VIN was invalid.
The contact stated that the microwave, hot water heater, and heater also failed to activate intermittently. The contact stated that the electrical failures were all located on the driver's side of the RV. The dealer stated that the wiring was installed incorrectly. The RV was re-wired; however, the failure persisted.
