Fuzion TH's

[ibycus]

Hi All...

I've been looking at Toy Haulers for a couple years now and I am seriously considering purchasing the new Fuzion 342..

just wondering if anyone has one and knows of any issues, complaints, quality issues? And really... for any of the currently year Fuzions, not just the 342.. but any 342 specific input appreciated...

I'm afraid to spend this kind of money and get something I'm going to be sorry with... so would appreciate any and all input 🙂

also.. anyone happen to have any information on the new fuzion 331 that is supposedly coming out soon?

I just bought a New 2013 Fuzion 310 from Holmans today and got an unbelievable deal. 12K Less than local dealers best deal. Picking it up next wednesday.1100 miles then another 950 to Dunes in oklahoma then 600 miles more to home. Can you say roadtrip lol.

I just looked last night and it wasn't up. Looks like it's gonna be a nice unit.

I own a 2007 Fuzion 362 and the only problems I have had were the decals coming off, electric part of the water heater, and just the typical DIY fixes that come with owning a toy hauler. Also the fact that everyone wants to hang out in it while camping, but that's what it is for.

I removed all of the decals and got lucky to get a new set under warranty that I have not even put on. I just run the water heater of propane since it is not a big deal for me.

It is really well built and can't complain about it except the fact it is big. I am actually thinking of downgrading to something shorter, but can't seem to find anything in the 28'-30' range I like.

We usually take it camping 3-4 times during the riding season and we leave it at the river for 3 months during the summer. Have not had any big issues dry camping or when hooked up full time during the summer.

One other issue is the ducted A/C. It works well in the main kitchen area, but doesn't do well in the garage area which I have read others say too. I have duel A/C so just leave the garage door open when people use the back for sleeping at the river.

This. Same as my 08 372. Have a wood rot issue we are dealing with on the down angle at the back of the garage (easiest place on the whole camper to fix something like this so not a real complaint) but otherwise well built. Many miles on it from FL to upstate NY. Raptors are the same quality, same rig, different trim level.

I'd be strictly guessing here, but I could see them doing away with the loft for more storage and possibly making the 2door fridge/2door freezer an option/standard.. but who knows...

appreciate the feedback and will see if I can figure out how to get some quality results from a search:)

has ur dealer get anymore info on new model

no.. but then again I doubt he'd tell me... he wants to sell me the 342 he has coming in this week.. 😞

As per my signature, my Fuzion 315 is a 2013 model and it was built in late September 2013. We actually expected it to be the black & red color scheme but the Monday it was ordered was the day they switched over to the new colors. They have since made a few other cosmetic changes to the 2013s.

We purchased from Holman Motors in Batavia, OH, but since they are 500 miles from us, I am having the warranty work done at a local Camping World dealer. I'm not sure if this is what you were getting at, but the 310 we looked at with the same drawer problem we built at least 4 months after mine and resides at a dealer 500 miles away from where mine was purchased. The Camping World dealer is new to the Fuzion line so I can't fault them for not being aware of what seems to be a common drawer problem.

I just signed today for my 342 with Santa Fe interior.

I just dropped my 315 off to the dealer today for a minor list of warranty issues. The only one on the list that I couldn't easily fix myself without spending a significant amount of money was a slam latch that the lock quit working on. All the other issues were fairly simple fixes, but I after dropping that kind of money on a trailer, I figured it should be their problem not mine.

Overall the quality of the Fuzion line is pretty good in my opinion. Most of my issues are a result of how fast these things are rushed out the door when they are built. The industry as a whole needs to focus more on quality control because I hear the same complaints over and over across all the brands. You would think that it would cost less money to perform better quality control inspection verses paying dealers to fix minor problems.

One issue that you should look out for during your PDI is the slide out drawer under the couch. The end of the sofa that the track mounts to on the right side is on askew for some reason. They just mount the track flat to the wall and when the drawer is wopen it causes the drawer to come off track. This is not noticeable until you have wthe drawer full and it becomes very difficult to move because the weight won't let it slide on the floor as easily as it does when empty. My dealer is fairly new to the Fuzion line but they acted like they had never seen this problem before. My son and I checked out a new 310 that they had on their lot and sure enough it was built exactly the same and the drawer was off track already. I don't know if the 310 was built close to the same date as mine, but I doubt it because this dealer just got it in 4 or 5 months after mine was built. We looked at a 399 also but I forgot to look at the drawer to see if it was the same. Overall, it is an easy fix, but you shouldn't have to mess with it yourself!

On my fusion the floor around the heater vents could be better braced, and the fit on the shower door was so bad it destroyed the lower wiper/seal after opening and closing the door 4 or 5 times. Shower fixed by dealer under warranty, the floor didn't show up until well out of it.
