You would think if a thorough Pre-delivery inspection was done on theses trailers fewer warranty issues would be left for purchasers to deal with. Anyway, once my warranty issues were corrected(2 months), things have been stable. Getting parts from FR seemed to be the big issue. Good luck, it's a good trailer once the bugs are worked out.

We just bought our 2012 HR Edition less than a month ago. On the first outing our tire blew out (less than 50 miles). On our second attempt, the studs broke and our wheel came flying off (less than 100 miles on it total). I see a lot of great experiences on this website and wish ours could be the same. Also, FR hasn't really responded very well. Nothing bad yet but slow given the situation. I am not feeling very good about our purchase right now.

I could go on and on, but I won't. Just search the posts for my issues. The biggest being having most of my windows replaced and the AC fan kit going. At the time, the rig was brand new and the AC issue only after a couple years.

Thanks for putting things into perspective. Am looking forward to getting the pod back from the shop soon, been there for almost a month. After all, summer is coming.

Don't feel too bad about anything you've had to have replaced under warranty. I think most of our Pod is new by now.
The microwave was replaced for a faulty door, the fridge was replaced because it wouldn't cool, the portable grill in the garage was replaced because it wouldn't get hot, one decal was replaced because it cracked and split apart and lastly the fantastic fan in the bathroom was replaced because it would go on and off on it's own.  Still love the Pod, and so far, knock on wood, all of the replacement pieces, controls, and units have all worked perfectly. That's not to say that the strange noise my water heater makes hasn't gotten some attention from me lately though!

Larry K,
Thanks for your reply. I can see where the front would look better without the decals. We'll see what happens. If the problem happens again I may do the same.

Hi kmcmurph,
Thank you for your reply. It's nice to hear others have had the same problem, though it's too bad Forest River hasn't opted for a more reliable Microwave. David |
