Currently at the Grand Canyon in our XT276 bought in January of this year. This is a 3000+ mile trip in ours, it's had a few issues.

Reading thru the posts here this year, some have lots of issues and some have few to none. It has been a learning process on how and why everything functions on a camper.

Personally, nothing of any major consequence on mine. A few minor adjustments here and there like tightening the tie downs (not snug/nuts had no lockwashers or locktite), tied up the wires underneath, foam filled/added 0000 steel wool where hoses/wires go thru the floor to keep mice out, install a TP holder, changed out the front bed mattress, etc.

So far, quite pleased and my selling dealer, although 400 miles away, has been helpful via emails or phone calls.

95% of the issues are related to poor workmanship at the factory. One cab lamp has never worked, slide electric wire guide pulled loose from the frame, back door is not aligned correctly and drags on the left side, AC has been tripping the inside breaker when used a lot in hot weather, GFI breaker occasionally has tripped when in route, Aluminum diamond brite in the storage area has come loose from the walls seems the double sided tape didn't do the job, fridge auto feature has quit working, one of the elctric stabilizer switches on the back is reversed...extend is up, numerous screw heads popped off on the exterior frame, battery box strap broke off, plastic hub caps are cheap and first time off several plastic tabs broke off, power cable connector melted first time we went camping due to a screw on one of the power wires finger tight.

That's all I can think of off the top of my head the camper is going back to the dealer this coming weekend for these repairs to be taken care of. I contacted the service rep today and have already talked with Gentry at Cruiser about all this stuff. It is suppose to all be taken care of once we get it down to the dealer. We have no trips planned until Oct so they have time to get this train wreck back on track.

You need a host website like photobucket or smugmug.
