WE HAD NOTICED A CRACK IN THE UPPER LEFT CORNER OF THE FIBER GLASS IN THE RV, ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. AFTER FURTHER INVESTIGATION, IT WAS FOUND THAT THE WELDINGS INSIDE THE WALL WHERE FAULTY AND CAME UNWELDED, I HAD TO PAY TO HAVE THESE WELDS RE-DONE BECAUSE THE MANUFACTURE WOULD NOT COMMUNICATE WITH THEM AFTER COMPLAINING OF THE ISSUE, IT WAS ALSO DISCOVERED THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE RV THE REAR HANGER HAD COME UNWELDED FROM THE FRAME, IT WAS RE-WELDED AT THE OWNERS EXPENSE ALSO WITHOUT MANUFACTURER ASSISTANCE. THIS WAS DISCOVERED WHILE TRAVELING ALONG DIFFERENT ROUTES IN THE US BUT THE ISSUE WAS DURING MOVEMENT OF THE CHOACH.
