RVER
May 31, 2018Explorer
MY post was just to have people inspect or have someone professional inspect the rig before you pay for it whether it is new or old. Best money you will spend as long as the RV tech is Certified and Independent of any dealership selling you the rig. I and heartened to see some people are satisfied with their rig's quality, I read so many complaints daily on RV.NET forums, on FB forums about RVing etc. I have a friend who bought a Passport and manufactured by either Keystone or Forrest River. The thing that stops the door from pulling past a 90 degree angle open pulled out almost immediately, a door on a cabinet came down, other things that were pains in the neck happened and now she told me there is a new problem so in a period of a year from purchase to a year later and now there have been quality problems because the wall on hte door was made of cardboard so it could not hold the door from slamming 180 degrees to the wall of the trailer. I also read somewhere where a brand new owner went up on roof and found that NONE of the sealant had been placed on seams. SO you know there is rotting going on in roof rafters, not all are metal and even so then the water would go to the ceiling itself. People complaining of having to leave their NEW rigs at the dealer for work that was on warranty and months later still at the dealership. I LOVE RIVING and want others to enjoy it too, just be aware that you MUST inspect the RV before you give the dealer any money. IF you pay and then expect the dealer to help you aS he would if you are holding the money, well good luck.
