We own a 2010....bought it "almost new"....it had only been used 2 weeks and sat for 4 yrs. Problems we've had:
1) air vent under step to bedroom had wires OVER it crimping it down....hubby changed it, now we're warm in the living room
2) a trim on the front started coming off....hubby fixed it.
I'm on the Open Range forum and sadly am seeing that the NEW rigs are having LOTS of problems. The paperwork with this shows only a couple of things caused it to be at the shop with the previous owner. Too bad they've gone downhill, because, seriously, this is the BEST rig we've ever owned!
Don't fall into that trap. The OR forum has grown by leaps and bounds since it was started. Or is selling more units than ever.
Be careful not to judge quality and complaints based on forum traffic.
People with issues seek out the forum for assistance with problems. People with no issues do not seek out the forum to tell how great everything is.
Consequently many forum post from newer owners are related to some sort of problem.
The problem maybe due to OR's negligence,a bad dealer or operator error on the buyer end. The net result is there may appear to be an influx of complaints from new buyers concerning their new units.
Don't get me wrong I don't think OR builds perfect units. Their units may have issues just like every other brand.
OR builds a decent unit. But more importantly, they offer a 2 year warranty and continue to stand behind what they sell.
The OP has made this same post in 3 venues that I am aware of. He has an agenda other than getting his RV repaired.
