Thor 2013 Chateau malfunctions in one day: Jack, refrigerator, and slide fail
Everyone has the rotten vehicle (RV) days. We had ours yesterday and today. We were placed in an unlevel site and proceeded to use the Big Foot Leveling system.....3 legs went down; the 4 th quit. The slide went out with much screeching. So I asked to be moved to a level site and we slowly moved the coach with the now ( not working) slide to the new level site. When we finally centered ourselves on the level site, the leveling arm still didn't work, the slide was stuck out and wouldn't retract and worst of all the refrigerator stopped working. The slide, incidentally was rebuilt at Thor in Elkhart with 3 motors instead of 2. But it didn't help us. Anyone have the same situation happen to them.
We are new to RVing only been on the road for 5 weeks and have lights fall off the wall, rear shade fall off, the check engine light sign has been on since we bought it 5000 mile ago and four Ford tries hasn't helped. The antenna handle assembly has broken, and the three tvs we have don't function. The radio in the cab worked for two weeks and then stopped working.
We plan to have everything corrected and then put it on the market as soon as we're home. SUV and hotels from then on.
