THOR #13505
Thor Is more dangerous to your Roof than YOU!!

My Thor 2020 Hurricane 35m came with a Winegard unit and it crapped out in April. It couldn’t see the ATT Sim Card.
After a month battling WInegard to prove my Rig came with unit, they sent me new unit.
There is a sheet in new rvs that list everything they installed with serial numbers, ours was in bedroom tv cabinet.
Instead of waiting week or so of our rv back in shop, It already spent 6 months in the shop, figure I would do it myself! Tech’s really do not understand the router stuff like I do.
Well Thor did it again, how the hell do the screws they use rust like that? WInegard sends you bad ass brass screws! Someone is pocketing them at the plant!
As you can see with the pics, it’s a shit show! ½ the screws were stripped, the wood they go into has water damage! Look at the freaking rust! Even under the Winegard unit, all four holes were rusty.
I swear my unit was left out in the sun for months in humidity!
Now I wonder about the rest of the stuff they put on the roof!!
If you have one of these units on your roof, I would check it out asap!!
PS, damn, I love my Winegard when it works!! Rolling down the road now typing this up!
