Here you go... I had to recreate my list (can't find where I put it!) and right now off the top of my head I have twenty things listed. I know there are more and I'll think of them eventually.





Problems we found the first night while still at the dealer, Thursday March 31st





1. Hallway heater vent not attached to wall. One of the screws was not going into any wood. It needed to be rotated and then re-attached to the wall.





2. The kitchen sink was not installed correctly. It was hanging low on one side with almost a 3/16 gap between the sink and the counter and no sealant to keep the water in. Water would have splashed right into the cabinet below.





3.The nice counter top is all scratched up next to the sink. The edge piece glued to the counter has obviously been broken off and then re-glued. … only it is re-glued crooked. They tried to polish out the scratches on the counter top, but only could get some. There is a place now were the finish is duledl and we still have scratches.





4.The electric outlet in the bunk area was missing it's cover plate (I found it laying under the matress of the bunk). Tired to snap it back on and notice the outlet was not installed incorrectly. It was protruding out of the wall so the plate wouldn't go on.





5. There was hardly any heat coming from bedroom heater vent.





6. Coach door would slam into the coach when you opened the door. We felt it was odd there wasn't even a stopper on the coach to keep it from being dented. Then after looking at other coaches we discovered there was a stabilizer/tension rod completely missing from the bottom of the door.





7. Far left leather panel of the bed backboard fell off the bed-board when removing plastic from the new mattress..





8. Hole in the leather arm of the sofa air bed.





9. Sofa air bed missing from the sofa.





10. The clothes rack in the bunk area is missing a screw holding it to the wall.





11. The USB charger outlet in the bedroom didn't work at all (it was wired backwards








List of things found wrong the first nigt we left the dealer. We traveled 94 miles to my brother's house in Ohio. April 1st





1. The heater went out twice and would not restart. Woke up very cold. Tried to restart the heater. It would not start. Waited 10 minutes tried again. Would not start. This went on for about an hour. Then 4 hours later the same scenario.





2. Tried to use the TV antennae. We found that at sometime it must have been bent over … when turning the handle to raise it up it made a very wobbly circle. Once up (or down) the two white round pieces were not aligning to lock the antennae in place. Upon checking the roof there was a major gap where the antennae wire entered the coach. Water would have seeped into the roof without us knowing it, eventually ruining the coach. Both need to be fixed. That handle still has a slight wobble.





3. The auto levelers were not leveling the coach to level. After trying three times for auto level a carpenters level showed we were ¼ inch front to back and 1/8 inch side to side. These measurements were taken just the length of the level. Multiply that by 36 feet of the unit and that is major.





4. There is no difference in the fan speeds hi and low. They are exactly the same. This was supposed to be fixed at dealer, but it is still the same.





5. The shower door coming out of the track when you open it.








On the way home to Michigan. This is after we had just traveled BACK to the dealer 94 miles for fixes Monday April 4th.





1. The auto levelers are not leveling the coach to level. Noticed the back levelers are not coming down at all now.





2. The coach door wouldn't close. Took one look to see the metal plate screws came loose and had slipped, thus misaligned the door latch. Then we noticed MAJOR EVIDENCE that this has happened before... the coach frame is dented and twisted. It looks as if someone has repeated slammed a misaligned door closed thus denting the frame of the door. With the dents, I'm not sure the metal housing will ever stay tightly screwed in place.





3. The cover of the light under the microwave is missing a screw, it was about to fall off.





4. We are missing several manuals and or instruction sheets: Heater, entertainment system, air conditioner, etc.
