      Are there laws that protect people from things like this.. I don't even drive and this makes me livid I will never have a trailer. These people worked their whole lives to buy these things it's not right. These days people don't care what's right and what's wrong they should start! Why should you have to hide?? Hopefully you have some sort of protection. I've been looking for a decent apartment since February and all I found that accepts Section 8 is slums worse than this maybe I should get off my ass and make another Channel like slumlord Central something about the homeless people hate homeless people but not all of them are on drugs. I've been so depressed after my son died. Every time I watch this it makes me so emotional people deserve better it all starts with they don't have any training probably these people putting together these things probably never did it before no wonder they're like this if they were professionals it wouldn't be like this something needs to change their who do they hire what kind of people work there?? Are they illegal aliens Maybe play the three dollars an hour what is it?? Well I hope you're safe Liz you are a hero too many people. I hope they investigated whoever was threatening you because it's b*******!! What happens when one of these trailers is going down the road and it falls apart and people die they will be coming up with money then won't they??

    I did some work years ago for Vaughn Beals, the retired CEO of Harley-Davidson. He said when he and a group of investors bought the company in 1981, they assumed a company with the best reputation in the industry for the worst product. I asked him how they fixed it. He said it took ten years to identify each problem plaguing the company and fix them one by one. The task of restoring faith back in the American RV industry is not an enviable one but we need someone to step up.

    Thanks for advocating for all of us. Not only did the slide get stuck out and the generator not work. But the windshield wiper flew off and wrapped around the passenger mirror again during a rain storm. Once we stopped and put it back onto the windshield, only the passenger side worked. This is not safe. We had our grandkids with us and they were so nervous because it wasnt working. The inverter was tripping again and the table latch is now duct taped because it doesnt stay in position. I still say there is something electrical wrong with this rig. I just wish Rev would stand by their product.

    I was seriously considering a Heartland Cyclone, same color scheme and everything...until I watched this original video. I went from a strong possibility to a strong hell no! We need to get this channel at least another 100K subscribers which would basically put it at the same number as Matt's RV Reviews. I know that Matt has a lot of fans, but let's face it, he IS a salesman for General RV, which is a very sketchy dealership, and his biggest sponsor is Lippert, aka the "frame flex" company. This Liz Amazing channel is 10 times more important to consumers than Matt's Prime Pooping Position channel. Let's get Liz to the 250-300K subscriber mark so she will have at least as much sway and influence in the industry as an RV salesman like Matt. Let's all "Like, Comment & Share!" Keep it up Liz!👏

      You can find a horror story for every brand of RV. The internet is a blessing and a curse. Just go look at them on the lot, talk to as many owners as you can, not just the disgruntled ones and make your own judgement call. Most people are happy with their purchase and they say nothing, but the angry ones make all the noise so you only hear them.

    Liz, maybe you could start and head up an RV consumer protection group. With lists of lawyers that specialize in going after warranty issues. And then, maybe selling insurance to cover consumer RV lawsuit costs. Same as my USCCA concealed carry association coverage takes care of legal fees resulting from a shooting.
    The RV industry is so bad that we really need a consumer protection group for our financial safety. And sometimes our actual safety, too!

    Others who would advise people not to buy any RV have mentioned that there’s no such thing as a lemon law when it comes to RVs, but if there was, it would be a huge, monumental improvement. If you’re going to buy an RV, which I recommend that you don’t, get all of the paperwork that you’re going to have to sign first and take it to your lawyer and find out what your rights are. You’re going to find out that possibly they will fix it but at the factory and that might be days away. I know people who have substantial RVs and every one of them have troubles with them..

    Liz we thought you might like some good manufacturer news. We recently had a wiring issue with our Forest River FR3 30DS motorhome (purchased in December 2021). Without going into great detail - the wires were burnt. We contacted Forest River letting them know and asked for reimbursement of the repair cost. It took about a month-two for the reimbursement to be approved and a check received. Thank you to Forest River Ronald (Joe) Rutkowski for getting the reimbursement for us.
    Prior to this issue : When we had only had our motorhome for 6 months (August 2022) we went to Elkhart and while having an update installed a few other issues were found. We again notified Forest River. A week later all issues were corrected. We submitted records of the cost to us and received a reimbursement check with in weeks.
    We are happy with how Forest River has treated us and will continue to be Forest River owners. :)

    The reason they refuse to replace RV's when it's obviously a lemon is because they worry that many others will demand they also get their defective RV replaced. The industry has been able to legally insulate themselves from civil lawsuits due to the contracts people are forced to sign. There really needs to be regulation to limit the use of these contracts which would force these manufactures to be responsible.

    Don't go to a new RV dealer and pay ridiculous fees for sub par RVs! Buy from an individual who stores their RV undercover and has everything sorted out! I had good luck with Newmar and Monaco RVs from the pre 2008 period. Never had any issues other than routine maintenance! They were built like a Sherman Tank and the Freightliner chassis was excellent!
    I would get a class A over a 5th wheel. Both are big units to drive but the class A is built sturdier IMO. I like pre 2008 units and forget all the problematic electric issues with the whole system tied into a main box so when one thing breaks many other things don't work either! I have my phone, iPad, Bluetooth speaker and that's all I need.

    Liz, I am glad to hear you’ve been successful in getting help for some of these folks. Great job. I’ve commented a number of times on your channel, and people are probably tired of my long winded comments.
    I don’t know why I’ve had better luck getting the factory to respond to my issues. While under warranty Winnebago offered to drive our class A gasser from Arizona to Iowa. We opted to drive and were happy with the service. 9 months ago , after the coach was out of warranty, Winnebago agreed to fix certain floor and water tank issues, if I got it to them. I’m retired, so I made an extended trip of it. Prior to this I owned a large Forest River class C. The body cracked at the slides, possibly my doing by overloading it. Forest River offered to repair it if I got it to Indiana. And it was 6 years old!
    Maybe I’m just lucky, but the BEST luck I’ve had was buying 2-4 year old used units. It seems most of the initial build issues were fixed. And my wife and I have owned six used and two new motorhomes over 38 years of RV’ing.
    My advice: buy used, but get an inspection!
    Thank you again.

    A local couple went to buy an RV, they knew what they wanted, the well known RV dealership had sold the one on the lot. However they had another at another dealership they could have it shipped. BUT, they had to sign a contract to buy it first and pay for the transport. They said no way they would do that, because the dealer after being asked if anything was wrong with it, would it be a warranty matter and not a dealership matter. The dealer tried to get around giving them a direct answer. They refused, until it was on their lot and had been inspected.

    When I bought my last car new, a 2013 Honda Fit, 2 years later a faulty transmission part had been discovered which was the result of fabrication errors. Well, Honda sent a recall notice, I took it into the dealership, they replaced it and it was done. It was apparently a costly part to replace too, but I didn't pay a penny for it. RV manufacturers need to have much great integrity with their products.

    That's crazy on the Thor. Cut out part of the frame so it's not supported, and when the floor starts sagging, the manufacturer isn't very concerned. You'd think somebody up the chain would be horrified that the builders would make such a mistake.

  • @markthompson2079
    @markthompson2079 18 днів тому

    Liz if the factory cut the main vehicle frame from the manufacturer of the chassis then take it to a DOT inspection site. Cutting the Frame is a absolute no, no. It must be done by a code welder not just any ole welder can fix it. Then it most be inspected by DOT after the repair. Back in the oil field we had more than frame extended. We learned the hard way on our first one and it cost us a lot of money. The main thing is you can not cut the frame without having a code welder to fix it.
    Good luck.
