In the first year I had 15 warrantee issues (first 15 issues listed below). I only took it on one significant trip right at the end of the warrantee period due to Covid travel restrictions). I bought a lemon and asked for a 12-month warrantee extension. On our next trip I had a near death experience when the axle broke at 60 MPH. My requests for warrantee extensions were ignored even though we have had 7 water leaks, we have been stranded roadside (out of state) 3 separate times in the first 16 months of ownership. In the past 2 years I have had 40 workmanship failures on my 2020 R Pod 189 (listed below). I am complaining again now only because I just noted the massive bubbling of the paper-thin laminate around the kitchen sink that I cannot repair.

2. Upon pick up- obstructed slide, interior molding needing trimming. Not repaired.
3. On our first outing the heater would not work.

12. Dump tank retaining strap completely failed (again)- seriously stranded.
13. Rear curtain had dangling valance
14. Adjacent valance screws loose, ready to fail.
15. The rubber bumper on the door was dry rotted upon delivery.
16. Multiple dealer warrantee repairs inadequate- continued failures- I made repairs
17. Two individual steps loose, screws loose, one fell out
18. Fridge control panel repeatably falls off
19. Upper kitchen cabinet support broke
20. Loose screws, misaligned kitchen cabinet door

So far very good. I am not clear about what charges I will incur- the terms were not clear and I fear I may get ripped off.
