We purchased our 2025 Dynamax Isata 3 RW on September 5th.
I am on this site trying to keep my sanity while we struggle with getting all the problems fixed:
•Leaking propane tank... lost 7% a day. Dangerous. Waiting for replacement.
•Refrigerator... does not cool. Waiting for replacement.
•2x ReLion RB100-LT batteries... one DOA, one 50% capacity. Waiting for replacement.
•Solar charge controller... was never connected to panels. Fixed by me.
•Water leak... missing connector crimp. Temp fix by me.
•Missing trim, missing screws, screw driver marks everywhere, garbage and crap hidden behind every wall and access panel... priceless.
Nobody at Forest River seems to be alarmed or surprised, sadly. The words "escalated", "being discussed" and "expedited" have been misused and are now dead to me.
So yeah, we are anxious to get to use it. But there is no end in sight. Hoping to someday change the avatar and our nickname to something different than "The Garbage Truck".
We regret trading in our Winnebago View that was awesome for 14 years. Quality build and awesome service.
Sorry to be a downer, just telling it like it is.
On the bright side:
The Mercedes Sprinter chassis is incredible. Handles like a dream, gets great mileage (16mpg). Will take a while to get used to 9 speeds as it shifts surprisingly often to keep the RPMs in the sweet spot.
