Have had our FR Wildcat now for four weeks. So far, a cabinet door has fallen off, the shower valve failed, the furnace quit and the electric plug for the hotwater heater fell out. Now in all fairness, I only hold FR responsible for the cabinet door and the electric plug. The door is self-explanatory, but the plug wouldn't have fallen out had it not been plugged in vertically where it could fall out from road vibration. The Suburban furnace had two internal issues and the shower valve was just cheap, IMHO.
I do not consider the Wildcat to be a top of the line RV, but from reading other poster's complaints about their own RVs, regardless of price point, it still seems as though the RV industry just pushes out units as fast and cheaply as they can. I told my wife to expect problems with a new unit, but I consider us fortunate there are not more issues with this one.
