I have also setup right next to new Monaco, Tiffen, and Fleetwood owners with slide, electrical, plumbing, appliance, fiberglass delamination, or leak issues.

Yes. They all have their issues.

Unfortunately, you did not catch the things wrong with your motorhome BEFORE you took delivery. That's the purpose of the pre-delivery walkthrough. You are supposed to examine and inspect your entire new motorhome to your satisfaction before you sign any documents.

Things like cabinet gaps, electrical shorts, wax-pencil cover-up, and torn cable bags should have been caught during a walkthrough on delivery day.

For the cabinet gaps alone, I would have insisted on a different motorhome.

However, all of the issue do seem repairable under warranty. So, just make sure to put together a comprehensive list of everything that you find before your warranty period expires.

I laughed when I read your comment about how you would have insisted on a different motorhome! I was 3.5 hours away from home on a weeks vacation to get this RV. The only one of the type (34J) on the lot.
The walkthrough was done with a fine tooth comb, but unfortunately these things did not appear as they were well hidden by the molding that later fell off.

I appreciate what you are trying to do here, but hindsight is always 20/20!
