Hello from a new RV'r, My 2014 Thor Windsport 27K has proven to be more than expected regarding basic problems after delivery.

1. Roof bubbles.
2. Bathroom mirror cracked due to flexing between latch at top and knob at bottom.
3. Large duct on drivers side not connected to anything.
4. Sat prep had no Coax to Sat dish in.
5. R/H FWD jack down light comes on when driving during rain.
6. Rear TV has no signal from Park Cable.
7. Driver side Windshield Wiper goes past L/H pillar on high causing it to skip during heavy rain.
8. Pantry slide put a hole in door during delivery from MFG.

Traveled 2600 miles from Oregon to Oceanside California and back during some very heavy cross winds and found the Thor Windsport 27K to be very stable both on I5 and HWY 395 back to Oregon. So I think after some warranty work my coach will be a good investment.
As to #8, nearly every THOR coach I looked at, when I was shopping, had this issue in varying degrees. I had the dealer install a second latch at the top of the pantry(it only has one at the bottom), it has never opened in a turn again.attachment.php
As to #6 Do you have reception in the bedroom from the antenna? If not, look behind the panel where the Winegard amplifier is mounted and look at the cabling. The white coax (park) goes to the back of that amp and the "out to TV" should go to a splitter, check that both "TV coaxes" are connected to that splitter (1 to the "main" TV and one to the bedroom)
and #4 the only satellite "prep" that my 2015 A.C.E. 27.1 had was a reinforced mounting area in the roof above the passenger seat area.
