I bought my RV brand new off the lot. I was working in Louisiana at the time so I bought the RV for work. It has been in the shop more than I have used it. Something electrical was wrong the whole time and I tried telling them that but nobody would listen. They talked me into the 7 year extended warranty. Its isn't worth 1700.00. After the first year nothing was covered. We were scared to use it because we knew something would go wrong with it and we would be stuck somewhere that we couldn't get back. In November 2019 it was plugged in at my home and I left for around 30 minutes. When I returned it was on fire. I was able to put the fire out before it burned my home down. My insurance fixed it and they have had to come out twice since to repair jacks. They have been changed 4 times. I am so unhappy with this RV. I cringe when I have to continue to pay the 750.00 monthly note. We were going to have to use it this weekend for my grandchildren 4H fair. We have to be there 4 days and it is too far to drive back and forth. We were cleaning the outside. We tried to get the slide outs to go in and now they won't work. We have to pay someone 75.00 to come out to look at it today and 75.00 per hour to work on it! Forrest River is a joke. Next week I am getting a lawyer to try to help me out here. I hate the idea of paying 45,000.00 for something I can't use. This is only part of the things that have happened to it. I just don't have the room to write everything down, but I do have the paperwork for a lawyer to look at! I would never buy another Forrest River anything. I had a 1996 cartilage by Carriage. It was still in great shape when I sold it after I bought the Wildcat. Wish now I had kept it.

We have had nothing but problems with ours, which we bought BRAND NEW! The list of things that have broke or not met quality expectations is endless: - motor to front legs to lift unit, stopped working after using only 3 times. - Windows leaking -shelves falling down -rear jack motors not working -front cap with major cracks and spider cracks - shelves in outdoor fridge collapse, cannot tolerate even holding a twelve pack -awning does not roll up properly - drain to septic and gray does not stop flowing with use of handles. Will be a slow flow, only way to completely stop is make sure cap is on. -door hinges loose and placed on crooked to begin with. -microwave door stopped opening properly and cracked trim around it. -drain in outdoor kitchen does not drain properly. -back up camera will not work We have owned it for 1 year and it has been in the dealer for repair for 8 MONTHS of that. Forest River is so slow at getting parts to the dealer to do any repairs. They also tried to deny covering some of the repairs while under our one year manufacturer warranty! The unit also pulls poorly. Lots of "bucking". Plus, the pin box design is horrible. If we have to make a tight turn, it has hit the box of our truck side and damaged it! Beware, we have learned our lesson the very hard way and will never purchase another Forest River product.
