Delivery of National Tradewinds Diesel pusher, this is the list of problems with the RV: ? do not work either high beams or low beams. Will not pass inspection had to pay to have it traced out and repaired by replacing headlight
switch. How did PDI miss this?
? No daylight running lights. I had to install a relay so it would be accepted by RIV.
? Dash air conditioner does not work. Only heat comes out
? Exhaust break does not work
? Missing Tyron warranty paper in paperwork.
? When we hooked up the water there was two floods in the kitchen under the sink and fridge
? Water heater does not heat on electric when turned on.
? Switches inside coach do not turn on water pump. Only the one switch outside in water bay.
? Fridge does not keep temperature right
? Ceiling not repaired in bathroom above shower, like we were told it was done. Also lots of new water stain marks since we looked at it. This was
suppose to be done and we were told it was done.....just had the sky light cover removed and it is total dry rot.
? Toilet is loose. We can hardly sit on it without it wanting to tip us onto the floor. Must not be sealed as an odour comes from it
? Grey water tank over flows when full
? Fantastic fan in kitchen does not work. We called fantastic manufacture and having new parts sent. We fixed this.
? Carpet is filthy even under the plastic cover.
? Fluorescent Light cover broken and hanging down in kitchen.
? Broken Switch for light above couch.
? Smoke detector does not work I had to replace whole unit.
? Broken closet sliding glass door latch and clothes rod fell down in bedroom.
? The washing machine does not have an outside vent and is missing the operating book that belongs with it. Also not hooked up to water. Broken
does not even spin. I'm sure it was not the machine that was in our other coach, that one worked.
? Generator runs for about a half hour then shuts down with flashing light on dash. Checked fluid levels found water level was low. Put more water
in and it still does not run right even with a full tank of diesel.
? Missing lamp in fridge. I had to guess size and replace Recall letter from Spartan chassis not signed. We had to call them to get that done.
? Surround sound does not work from T.V. or VCR or DVD player.
? Had safety inspection done and oil change, they found No water in the radiator overflow reservoir. Radiator water low. . Two rear seals with a
minor leak. Told they would take 1 hour to fix both with a new gaskets. We are totally disappointed in the way the coach was sent to us, especially
when we were told things were done or checked. Why were these things missed if PDI was done? For us to pay another $12,000 for a lesser coach
was really a rip off. They did not PDI this coach as promised. Because I have spent my allotted 180 days in the US I could not return the coach within 60 days to have the
problems fixed. They just said they could not believe that this many things were wrong with the coach.

Diagnosed faulty driver's side mirror assembly/camera, un-kinked hot water supply line, shortened bathroom breather vent pipe and installed new vent cover. Solved our problems.
