    Warranty Repairs / Replacements?

    Hi all, I've got a 2019 Shasta Oasis 31OK that we purchased from a dealer in June, 2020 (less than 1 year ago). I discovered recently that our microwave no longer works. So I have two questions. 1) Do you know what the default manufacturer's warranties are for internal components like a...

    Warranty repairs

    We bought our 5th wheel in Sept 2019 & it’s still under the manufactures warranty. We’re traveling right now & our bedroom roof air went out yesterday. It will only blow hot air out & we’re in the desert! Not good! Ha! We’ve never used the warranty. How do we do it? Do we call Forest River or...

    Forest River Berkshire Atwood Ladder: Design, Upgrades and Repairs

    I foolishly backed my Coach into a tree and bent my lower ladder. It still held together, and seemed safe enough to continue climbing it, but I decided to repair it last week. A lot of people have complained about the ladder, saying that it seemed flimsy, so this repair gave me a chance to...

    Windjammer — Issues, Repairs & Hacks

    Hi all! I read through the other WJ thread but, since it was so old, I couldn’t comment or reply to any of the posts so I figured why not start a new one :D I bought a 2015 Windjammer 3001W Diamond Pkg in March and am very happy with the purchase thus far. There were a handful of fixes needed...

    Repairs

    We drove an hour to look at a used 2016 FR3 30DS with 28k miles on it, and were disappointed - it wasn't in quite as good a condition as we had hoped, after staring at the pics for a few hours the past week. The windshield had a large crack on the passenger side, and the owners had a pet -...

    Repairs and Upgrades

    I follow three RV forums and have noticed a something. Mostly with basic repairs. What I see is people posting help questions (which is good) but it looks like common sense, remove and replace with new, has disappeared. I guess what I'm saying is don't make it harder than it is. If your...

    RV repairs

    This subject has probably been beat to death but here I go. It seems to me that the RV industry has blown up with more and more families buying some type of RV. I see folks on forums either complaining about a brand name or dealers. I think you get lemons for everything you buy. I believe the...

    2011 Georgetown Mods & Repairs

    I just bought my 1st RV over the summer & still trying to fix all the little things. My expensive lesson was that it wasn't a 220 plug like I thought. :crying: Ya that cost me a new converter, microwave & stereo. I've done the CHF & steering stabilizer that's made a huge difference. I added...

    Dropped my FLOK off at Forest River yesterday. Supposed to be repaired and back in two weeks here’s to hoping. They found many more defects while walking it down then I had known about. Hoping it comes back as good as they say.

    Negative Warranty Repairs :(

    Your dealer if they are a good one or not are only as good as the warranty person you deal with at Forest River. I had countless emails and phone conversations with a rep at Forest River concerning mainly a roof issue and repair at a Foreest River dealer. The repair was unaccetable. The three...

    I did something dumb. Going to have to do some repairs now

    I forgot to plug my cord into my truck before I left the campground and the road chewed the cord up pretty bad. My wife was behind me and she noticed I didn't have any lights but didn't bother to say anything lol. Anyway, I can see where the cord goes up through the front of the underbelly but I...

    Warranty Repairs

    I bought a Forest River Surveyor less than 6 months ago and when we had it setup we noticed a water leak and 2 of the TV plugs did not receive any signals. We contacted the dealer and they said they would call back to setup a appointment to get them fixed. Well they never called back and after...
