Prevost/Newell - yes. Been in them - fixed them, listened to owners gripe about them. Even seen them towed.

Spacecraft - no experience. New Horizons - same-o-same-o. If they aren't failing on day one give them a few months and stuff still fails.

oh - just want to add..... I stood on my class A build when the sub floor was put in and followed alongside, in and on it daily in the factory as it was built. Although it wasn't a custom build. Helped catch a few things that could have gone wrong (builders were super happy to fix it). And during the time I had it I still had problems -- some no so related to build quality, some related to house issues, some related to chassis issues.

So -yes - I maintain that every RV has issues. It seems to go with the territory. It shouldn't to the extent that it does lately, but it's there.
Yes things may break, but that doesnt mean EVERY RV is built with the same low quality as a GD is

If you look you will find a post a made several years ago about Warranty issues with RV's. This was directly from NHTSA over the course of 3 or 4 years. Every Manufacturer was on the list. Grand design had the lowest "hits" as I recall. Brinkley was not yet being built at that time so was not on the list. They have made it several times since then. The most recent was 2/10/25 "
NHTSA Recall ID Number :
25V042
Manufacturer :
Brinkley RV
Subject :
Solar Charge Controller Failure May Cause Fire




To be fair Grand Design has been on there twice this year also, but the point is all of them have issues. The list includes Newmar, Airstream, Entegra Coach, Gulfstream, and Starcraft RV, among MANY others.

I looked, cant find the NHTSA 3 or 4 year warranty list that you indicate has "every manufacture" on it. Can you provide a link?

GD only on the recall list twice this year, as of this post thats about 65 days....year is still young so Im sure they can get their average up.
