I don't think it's entirely fair to single out one particular manufacturer.
As for the original poster, you said you've "had it for a few years".
It's a 2001 camper.
You can't just buy it, use it for a few years, and not expect problems to come up. Maybe it wasn't done right from the factory, or maybe the guy that had it before you was a total moron, and had some shop try to fix a problem, and made it worse.
You don't know anything with a used product. Blaming the factory, or blaming anybody else, doesn't work.
With all due respect, but you seriously need to do more homework when buying, owning and using a used product, like a car, or a camper, or anything else for that matter.
You need to not just buy and use, but inspect, crawl under, open things up before they become problems.
Your 10 posts so far do not qualify as doing your homework. Sorry to sound harsh, but that's the way I look at it.Your 10 posts so far do not qualify as doing your homework. Sorry to sound harsh, but that's the way I look at it.
Don't think that is a fair statement. At one point, you had 10 posts as well (and so did I). 10 or 1000 makes no difference. the build quality is lacking and will continue to be lacking until the general public (buyers) quit accepting it.
Then and only then will build quality improve. Every manufacturer has the capability to build a quality unit (and some do, Hallmark and Four Wheel Campers) come right to mind, but, the rest get by with questionable practices because we accept those practices and buy their products.
Quality is customer driven, build quality and overall quality.
