I have the 2017 HG 272RL. Have only owned it a few weeks however, I can list already the issues Im having with it. Wow, what a company. Forest River needs to step up their QA program. I know I know, I should looked harder when I purchased it. Sorry, I will know better next time. Oh wait there will be no "Next Time". I have the rear kitchen area, thats with the small frig and prep area. Well the storage door is help up (When open) by a clasp. The door is so big that a small wind came thru and pulled the clasp out. On the third time I had to use longer screws to keep it secure. When i did that I ended up going thru the inner wall of the camper. So I took some scrape wood and used it as a backer board to give the screws something to grab onto.
So now I move on to the other issue. The awning, its the non motorised side. which would be above the rear kitchen door. After watching is close a few times I noticed that this side did not close all the way. I mean like the motorized side. I did an inspection of the parts and none look bent or misaligned.
There are at least 3 more issues that where wrong that I have fixed. But they were minor in detail.
Bottom line, I will continue to fix the problems as they come up and warranty the ones I cant.
I will get off my soap box now. Thanks for listening.
