Our RV basically fell apart little by little, until the slide wouldn't work in colorado.
Forest River Cardinal LTD, 377MBLE RV
VIN-4X4FCAP24MG105226, purchased at General RV in Dover, Florida
The first year we owned the RV, it was in the shop 6 months total.

• Inverter
• Power Panel
• Control Box
• Dinette shade fell off wall
• Black and Gray tanks leak. (continue to leak, always some liquid when we open to add sewer hose
• Main awning motor
• Sound bar was not functioning (Brian approved the optical cable, really $14 part left off a $80K trailer?
• Hand rail fell out of the wall by stairs
• Power panel loose and falling out of the wall from earlier “fix”
• Belly Pan fall off
• Main A/C unit not shutting off
• Bedroom A/C not working at all (wires not attached per tech)
• Outdoor fridge does not work while driving (turns out it’s not supposed to?)
• Door lock spins, does not lock
• Trim above the slide in bedroom falling off
• Bedroom slide rubber stops fall off, not secured
• Hydraulic leak – in two places, probably due to belly pan falling off
• Slide issues, no bell stops at all? Gears, actuator
• Need all slides checked.

In Colorado, we could not get our slide totally closed to get home and it had to be strapped closed. We were told that the police could stop us and make us drop the RV where we were because it was unsafe. When we got home and traded it in, we were lowballed as to trade it amt, and told they would not repair it. It would go to auction for parts.

Desired outcome: Refund of purchase price. RV has been turned back into dealer, General RV. They are sending to auction for parts, so we are told.
