I am not questioning you; but just feel like something is missing. This CHF has been around too long and it is too good from all fronts. Couldn't cost Thor more than $20 bucks more to add.

In my really unintelligent view, If all is true then manufacturers are willfully sending out a product with known safety issues and rely on the consumer to fix after the fact. Possibly because of concerns with the impacts on RV service centers who do this work for customers that can't, or do not wish to do themselves.
There are many RV service centers that will not do the CHF because it is not recommended by Ford. Even the Camping World in my area refuses to perform the CHF and they will generally do anything. Could it be there is too much liability associated with that modification? I imagine there are just as many folks and service centers that say no as there are that say yes. I personally talked to a Ford truck service center when I had the Challenger aligned and they said no.

"If all is true then manufacturers are willfully sending out a product with known safety issues and rely on the consumer to fix after the fact."

Thank you for your extremely subjective opinion.

The consumer had the option to test drive the vehicle and then leave it on the lot if they weren't happy with the way it handled.
