Now we have a 12 Aspect and 2 years ago the fuel pump went out while going to our vacation destination. Cost me somewhere around $700 to R&R. We have GS roadside to cover tow, and the warranty to cover repairs. Part of the $700 was my deductable. But ended up with NEW battery, new fuel pump relay, new fuel pump, TPS, and a couple of other things. Big thing was inconvenience and cancellation of trip with my kids/grand kids.
Last year started having frig problems with it not cooling. Cost me $250 for analysis and replacement of 1 part again while on trip. Worked ok but then started again. Got home replaced the eyebrow controller and its been good. Did not use the warranty. Other than that no issues with the rig. They say to expect issues but it will depend on usage I guess. Anyhow the starter you said cost due to having to have it done and not DIY. So kinda hard to complain on that one particularly since you have I guess only put in $1500 over 10 years, not counting I guess FW&T items (tires, oil changes etc). I think if you ask others with the brand you will find you have not been overly taxed by issues not uncommon to all rv's. So go to the aspect site and ask/read what others have to say. I think I would rather put some $$ into something I know then spend the $$$$ for something newer but not necessarily better.
