I have observed many many times in RV parks and campgrounds people stuck for days at a time with complicated mechanical issues with their newer Class A MHs and repeated visits from mobile repair technicians.

On the other hand, in August we were camping on Newfoundland island in Canada. The guy next to us had been there for 5 weeks in his travel trailer. He was supposed to be there for 3 or 4 days, but blew the engine in his truck and was stuck. He had been waiting for a crate engine to be shipped there that whole time. Vehicle problems can happen to any vehicle, not just a motorhome.
And, to head off the question of why he didn't just buy a new truck, I don't know. Unless it was that he was from the US and didn't want to buy a Canadian truck. Or, he really, really liked his truck. Or, due to the vehicle shortages he couldn't find one that would tow his TT.
