We bought a FR3 from a local dealer in South Carolina with the recommendation of a good friend. We were about to purchase a used rv when the FR3 caught our in the showroom.

On our first trip out the bedroom slide failed to retract. I managed to push it back in and blocked it from sliding out again. Continuing on our way home we went thru rain that leaked down in front of the driver. We returned to the dealer and after a couple of weeks we made a trip to Florida. Guess what, the bedroom failed to retract and the windshield still leaked. I knew the windshield would leak as when I cleaned the window after refueling soap suds came down on the inside and rain also came in later on. We stopped at Camping World in St Augustine , Fla. they wanted to keep the unit for a few weeks for repairs under the warranty. We could not stay there that long and too far from home to return in the car. Decided to trade it for a Hurricane. Continued on our vacation uneventfully.

I think there are problems with a new motor home but when you return it for repairs under warranty I think they should be fixed. Very disappointed with Forest River.

Our 5th motor home is a 2017 Dynamax Isatta 4. Previous owner made one trip in it and traded it for a diesel we were told. The unit is great but one must be a computer programmer to operat the lights and most everything else. We did have a slide motor fail and the computer programmed wall switches reprogrammed. I also removed the entry step as it is very close to the ground even retracted. A speed bump could destroy it.

Wish I had the Hurricane!

Reason of review: Bad quality.
