Love them assemblers

The exact same thing happened to my Winnebago Class C. I had been experiencing difficulty draining my black tank then one day this piece just came out and all my drainage problems were solved.

Add one of my previous motor homes to that list! It was not that bad to remove and if not for the rv.net/forum I would have never thought to look for that disc as the problem!

That round piece was probably from a hole saw used to install a tank rinser.

I feel your pain, bought my trailer about a month ago and have found tons of little stuff, none too hard to fix though.

I guess they didnt feel like moving that bracket lol Well, I moved it


Entire back wall behind the kitchenette loose, found that not a single staple had actually made it into the wall support. Pulled the entire wall apart, glued and used my brad nailer...solid as a rock now.


Other issues:
Speakers dont work, found bad crimps and wires laying in ceiling.

Screen door doesnt latch, adjusted latch

Water pump laying on floor behind access panel with screws in it, not attached to bracket.

Rear wall trim falling off, glued and brads, good as new

Bad coax connections and front jack not working, let the dealer do that one.

A few other things but I must say, I love my trailer.

So who is to blame though? The assemblers? Is there a QC department who check units before they roll out?
The dealer? But they cant spend all their time fixing problems while in their lot?

Kinda difficult to do a post-build QC check on most things in an RV, without tearing the thing completely apart.

It's really a no-win situation for everyone involved. The manufacturer is trying to make a buck in this economy of razor-thin margins. People as a general rule go for the cheapest price, with no consideration of anything else such as quality. If Brand X sells an RV for $10 less than Brand Y, Brand X gets the sales even if theirs are garbage and Brand Y makes the best units on the market.

They gotta make volume to make any money. I wouldn't doubt but the workers are paid piecework wages, so the more units they complete, the more money they make. You wouldn't see an hourly worker running with a wall.

Of course the fitting hole is smaller than the cutout.

Pretty simple...

The hole through the fitting is smaller than the hole cut to install the fitting. Duh!
