Man - you aren't kidding.
  • Windshield washer fluid tank bolts - should have 4 bolts - only two installed both only finger tight

    Front bumper - bolts loose - each side

    Rear bumper - one bolt loose

    AC Input on exterior - two screws loose, sloppy install - two screws missed the mark completely. Also needed to be sealed with silicone

    Drawer glides - oh my god, every glide had only one loose screw in the rear, they were also not level - glides had to be remounted on two drawers - they were crooked. Also had to add additional wood support to accept three screws in the rear. Really sloppy stuff. (This eliminated a ton of rattles)

    Door threshold - screws loose (one missed the mark entirely). Threshold also needed additional wood underneath to support it - was flexing badly when you stepped on it.

    Whomever Thor has installing screws on coaches should be fired. Talk about sloppy Homer Simpson level work. Try using a ruler and square.

    You should also replace the crimped wire connectors used to connect side marker lights in front and rear; Thor uses open ended butt connector - great for allowing water in the connection. Use connectors that are watertight.
