New 2015 Rockwood 8280WS warranty issues, Thoughts?
HI all,
New to the forum here, in August we bought a new 2015 RockWood 8280WS Signature Series ultra lite 5er with Diamond pkg.
In two months of owning it,we have accumulated a large listed of warranty items that need to be taken care.
This is our first Rockwood and I was wondering if it is normal to have So many issues. With a window sticker of $52,000 I wouldn't think so.
Of all the issues the only ones that really concern me have to do with the exterior fiberglass.
We have used the heck out of it in the last 2 months and Love it
Here is our list so far:
Defect in rim
Shower door will not close without lifting up on it, it is hanging down, weatherstrip on the bottom is now ripping off
LED light on nose cap has a bad LED
Defect in the couch material, the seam is coming apart
Raised striation marks in the exterior fiberglass
Driver side fiberglass over the left side of the slide is sticking out about 1/2" further then the rest of the wall creating a noticeable vertical line in the camper. Im afraid that will be the perfect spot for delam in a few years since it appears to be under a lot of stress from being bowed out.
Fire place shuts off and wont restart without resetting the on/off switch, the manual says it is overheating
USB charger port in bedroom does not work
two bulbs out in ceiling fan
Frig wont stay lit in propane mode while driving down the road, error light flashes
Top door hinge in bedroom door is very loose, screws appear to be stripped out
Graphics sticker is peeling off of the nose cap
Bedroom slide seal is falling off
Here is a link to pictures of most of the issues
Pic's
I am kinda disappointed that a higher end $52k unit that should have been built with a lot of quality has So many issues right out of the gate
Love the lay out, love the Looks, love the way it goes down the road, Dont Love all of these issues, I feel like I got a Lemon.
I'm interested in knowing if this is the norm or just my bad luck.
Thanks for any input you may have.
