slide out was activated but only left hand side moved right side was bound up. The guide came apart on the right side h column and completely bound it up.

This was an end of season purchase we only used the camper on 1 trip, I calculated that we have used the slide out on this new RV a total of 13 times always following the instruction on opening and closing it. That seems like very low usage for wear and tear to be a factor. Additionally this slide out system was recalled on similar 2022 RVs for this exact issue. The recall need to be expanded to all manufacturers…

We were driving down the road in downtown Greenville, SC, and the left side window fell out of the camper.

The invoice repair is still pending because the wrong window was ordered. I am told the window will cost $600 plus shipping and labor…

There is a bracket that welds to the frame and supports the crank for the ice house and the entire weight of the RV. there are some very questionable welds on the brackets that looks like they were blown through the metal so now that bracket is bent and unlevel and digging into the side of the fish house causing the diamond plate in the wheel house to come off and expose the insulation.

Forest River Gray Wolf 2022, this is the third time that I have seen the same model Waaree solar controller fail on this model RV and start over charging customers batteries. This vehicle came in with its lead acid batteries over charged to 20.9 volts, identical to last time. Not sure if its widespread, but it seems to be problematic enough that I can see one fail three times in under a year.
