Re: Bought a Elevation, bought a problem
The light fixture wasn't even screwed, it was secured by what looks like less than a "finish" nail, and silicone(all of which didn't make contact with the ceiling panels. What started the problem is even more problematic, the condensation from the A/C isn't exiting the unit, instead its flowing into the space between the exterior roof and the ceiling panels, you can see the water damage in the photos. Another two things to add to the list: Electrical outlet cover plates are all popping off. Black tank rinse system doesn't work.327Views0likes0CommentsBought a Elevation, bought a problem
Would be nice if I could provide a photo but don't know if it's possible here. Just description alone won't do this justice. But here is my list of 2013 Elevation 3410 issues. I bought in December of 2012, lived in it for 6 months (when it wasn't in the shop). Put less than 200 miles on it currently (mostly accumulated from trips to the dealer for service). Furnace will not blow strong Water pump was defective low/surging pressure Leak in bottom of shower into cargo area. Very difficult to open / close entry door Factory Wired Breaker Overload Issue Leaks around kitchen sink Skylight Leaked Water damage to floor structure Ceiling Panel Damage Blue Control Panel LED switch indicators went out Tank level indicators not accurate Kitchen Lights not working Kitchen Light fixture fell and busted glass Damaged Counter Top Trim Pieces falling from slides Freshwater Tank draining itself Black tank leaking Short in Security Light Circuit External Speakers falling apart External Graphics not properly applied Kitchen Sink water pressure problem Sliding Glass Doors bind up and won't lock No handles installed on ramp in rear Fridge will not keep cold Main slide binds up on extend/retract A/C condensation leaks into living areas. Awning has 0 pitch so it collects water. Finding screw heads throughout unit (displaying structural integrity) Silicone not properly applied to exterior creases allowing water and debris entry. Stools provided with unit fell apart and had to be reassembled. This is most of what I experienced, surely there will be more to add this is all off the top of my head. The plan for this unit is to be returned for exactly what was paid. I feel robbed to have paid nearly $50,000 for something that keeps on and on with the problems and challenges, there's nothing desirable about it and who would want the burden once the factory warranty expires.3.7KViews0likes13Comments
