Fortunately for me, when I bought my Winnebago Minnie Winnie 22R six years ago (can it really be that long ago?), I had no manufacturing problems except for one, a "glued" shut bathroom roof vent that was fixed under warranty. It only took a couple of hours to fix.
Other people have not been so lucky. Some have had major problems with their brand new RVs that had to be addressed (a friend is in that category) by the manufacturer, sometimes multiple times. Many repairs have taken weeks or months.
Now there's an inspection service that may help with manufacturing problems before the rig hits the road to a dealer.
RV Travel reported:
You don’t need to look far to find dissatisfaction among folks who’ve bought new RVs. It’s a matter of, “For the money we’ve spent, to have to send the thing back for service immediately is ridiculous.” This is a common refrain. But at least two RV manufacturers may alleviate some of that. A new RV inspection service has just opened in the heart of U.S. RV manufacturing country. General RV Center has thrown open the bay doors at its Bristol, Indiana, inspection plant.
One of the two manufacturers who signed on is Winnebago, by the way. Kudos to them!
