separation nose, pin area,floor, radio, slide motor axles/bearings and whatelse.
We just had our 8280ss back to factory to rebuild because of this problem as well as the floor dropping about 2inches. We bought the extended warranty when we bought the unit Aug. 23/2007 and it was the best money we have spent for sure. Our unit now looks better than when we took possession originally. Floor is now built to this year's standards, and new caulking and however they fixed the front end. Of course it has only gone from Indiana back to our place, about 10 hours of driving in total so far. New axles, new carpet, all the water lines checked after the rebuild, new slideout motor and new concertone, just before it went to Indiana so in essence Forest River has almost rebuilt our 5th wheel. Why didn't they just do it right to begin with. All the trips to the dealer and then to Indiana have cost us likely about $3000 in gas, aside from our time, but it cost them a lot too.
Well now our warranty has run out, so we will give it a try but we are torn, should we sell it while it looks like new and start all over or stick with them?
We really like our layout, size, etc. and then what do we buy?
