Let me clarify for you. 1. I did not go camping with a known issue. The trailer was at CampingWorld for six months getting the slide repaired. We left Florida and were in Texas four days later. As we were bringing the slide in, the same problem occurred with the slide bracket bending. We...

Yes, I am not capable of fixing some things on the trailer and may not be that handy but I can do some repairs. Fixing this slide is not a one man job and if you do not have the technical knowledge, I doubt that you could fix it. It has taken trained mechanics four tries. Could you have taken...

Trailer is now at Camping World in St. Augustine. Heartland customer service said they would do no more and that all the slide now needed is an adjustment and to contact Camping World. Well that would not have been enough without some intervention. I haven't had a chance to pick up the...

Heading to Florida in the morning. If you see me, please honk.

Just to clarify. First time I brought the rig to Camping world they had it for three months. Second time, it was for six months. Seems like Heartland kept on sending the wrong parts. That I can believe up to a point. I did not cancel the trip because of the washer, I cancelled Sante Fe...

If you have seen some of my other posts about the problems with this rig, you will get more of a picture as to why I am so frustrated with Heartland. There is no reason why I had to have my rig at Campingworld for 9 months ( 3 months and 6 months) for the same problem and again when I get to...

This morning I got ready to leave my camping spot after four weeks and I noticed that the shore power outlet looked a bit loose. I got the square head screwdriver out and tried to tighten the screws. Well, all the top two did was turn and turn. Finally, I decided to take the whole thing off...

I'll be on the road from NH to DE on Wednesday. If you see me, please honk.

If you put the ring forward and rest the bar of your bike against it to secure it, DON"T. I did it and travelling the many miles on this trip, the ring started to wear a hole in the frame of the bike. I tried putting a towel around the bar but the ring just wore through that. Finally occurred...

Anyone else having problems with the furniture in their trailer? Sofa had a small hole and some rough surface on it when purchased. dealer repaird. One chair had a piece of metal sticking out and was scratching the frame on the rear window. The other chair has two nails that constantly want...

Bob I have talked to Heartland Customer Service and to a point, they were very helpful and I appreciated it. However, all of a sudden Mike told me that it now was an adjustment and they would not cover it especially since the rig was out of warrantee. I have found out that Camping World in St...

Jim No, I do not believe that I could fix this myself. The whole slide is out of wack and will take some lifting and undoing of the cable system. Beyond this senior's ability. The trailer is no longer in warantee but this problem has been there since day one. I didn't see that the slide...

a Caliber 26rlss going down the road between PA, NH, DE and Fl, with lemon written across the rear window, just honk and wave. After two attempts by Camping World and one by LaMesa, the slide on this tt is still not fixed and recently it has slipped so that I can put 1 finger on the top on the...

I am also very disappointed in Heartland's quality and can't believe the number of items such as a complete front panel replaced, leaks, doors not fitting, slide that can't seemed to be fixed. On the road and praying everytime I open the slide that it won't jam up again. Be home in September...

Well I did get the water in the trailer problem fixed. Turns out it was a bad washer in the outdoor shower hose. Gee, and I had Camping World replace the city water connection for this problem. That was under warrantee. Took the tech at Jorgensons about 10 minutes to diagnose it. Cost me...

Slide was out of wack the day I bought it but didn't see the issue until I was on the road. Camping World had there chance. La Mesa Rv had there chance a week ago and did a very poor job until I went over everything with them. Such as 4 screws were supposed to be replaced but only three were...

Drama with this tt continues. Battery check light no longer works and the city water connection has sprung another leak. Connection was replaced before because of a leak. We are on a road trip in Utah with no RV dealer's within 100 miles. I am forced to use the fresh water supply. This...

If you use the bumper bike rack, just a word of caution. I tied my bike to the upright and put a wrapped a facecloth around the crossbar. After driving 3 thousand miles, I had my first opportunity to take the bike for a ride. The round ring on the bar, wore through the facecloth and started...

My last Heartland When I purchased my 2013 26 RLSS, I thought I was buying a quality trailer. This tt has been nothing but a problem since day one. in The slide was out of alignment from day one. Didn't notice it then. Took it to CampingWorld, authorized repair dealer. It spent 3 months...

I have a 2013 26rlls Caliber edition. I have had nothing but problems with the cable slide system. Slide coming in locks and then lets go and end up with a loose cable and a bent bracket. I have tried to have it repaired three times but still have problems. Slide currently is touching at the...

Okay, so now it has been SIX MONTHS since I originally brought my tt to CampingWorld for a host of adjustments and repairs. Latest is that Heartland sent the wrong slide seal to CampIningWorld. This seems to happen a heck of a lot. In the approximately 8 1/2 months that this tt has been at...

Similar story on parts being ordered. Really don't know who is at fault but my tt was at CampingWorld for 5 months this time and three months the previous time. CampingWorld says Heartland is slow on shipping. My experiences at two CampingWords have been very negative and one excellent. It...

I did call Heartland. Two parts were shipped and I was given the date Campingworld received them. One of the parts was reordered because it was the wrong one. I can't verify any of the other parts but CampingWorld kept me appraised of when the parts were ordered and when they might receive...

I just got my tt back from camping world to have some work done on the slide, replace front panel and a host of other small items. The trailer was at camping world for one day shy of five months. Major reasons I got were that Heartland was slow in shipping and that a faucet, Teflon piece, and...

Bob Thanks for the info. Being fairly new to this forum, I haven't figured all the ins and outs yet. My assumption about Ask the Factory title was not correct.

Just curious as to why there is a forum called Ask the Factory? All of the questions seem to be answered by other camper owners. Seems that if a question is answered directly by the factory, much confusion could be avoided and a lot of guess work .avoided. Example is the question about how to...

I purchased my tt from Camping World while we were on a trip. Kind of an impulse buy. Horrible experience. PDI person knew less than I did about the tt. Took the trailer to a local Camping World after we finished trip. Robert was my service contact and he called weekly to let me know what...

My wife and I have been on the road for 8 weeks now and there are some things we would like to see changed. 1. Space for a towel rack in the bathroom. 2. Take out the smaller medicine cabinet in the bathroom. 3. An adjustable shelf in the cabinet above the sink. 4. Make the clothes...

I had one of the hinges on a cabinet door come out of its hole. I stopped at an authorized dealer and was told that this was an adjustment and not a repair thus it could not be done under warantee. I was surprised to hear that because I thought it was a bumper to bumper warantee for one year...

Just played around looking for information on the TouchAudio system because the one I have is driving me nuts. Won't stay on long enough to make a decent change, have to chance it. Sometimes it loads the dvd, sometimes not. Comes on by itself. Pain to change between frequencies. I thought...

Just would like to know if others have the same air circulation as I do: Heat: Bathroom (this is the hottest room) and the heat vent under the stove pump out the most heat. vent next to the door is moderate but the bedroom is very slow. A/C with the vents closed on the ceiling unit. Two...

Has anyone been having any problems with this slide out? When I first got the tt, the slideout was out of alignment. Top was close to the wall but the bottom was out about 2 to 3 inches. Camping World fixed the problem but I didn't get a chance to use the tt until recently. Within a few days...

Just an update. We are on a 2 month trip and have currently towed from Florida to Maine. I was very surprised how the 1500 towed the tt. No problems going up hills or staying at 60 to 65 mph. Averaging about 10 mpg but hit a high of 12 for one part of the trip. The 2500 (2006 8.0 gasser...

Thx for the reply. Looks like pulling out the converter may be the only way. I was hoping to avoid doing that. Looks like a design flaw in that anything that has to do with water should have some access. Pulling out the drawer would do no good as there is a panel sealing the area where the...

I hooked up the fresh water hose and had some problems with it not leaking. After trying different hoses and changing a washer, I stopped the leak. The water had sprayed out and also leaked inside of the trailer. However, there was water inside the tt. The water was coming from under the...

This is my third tt and the tub surround in this shower is the poorest design of all. The one shelf is too narrow to really hold a bar of soap or bottle of shampoo. When we first got the tt, every time we took a shower, the soap would fall off because it was not attached to the wall very well...

Just wondering if you are towing a 26rlss with a 1/2 ton pickup. I have a 2013 26rlss and just purchased a 2013 Silverado 1500 with the 5.3 and 3.42 gears and 6 speed. I have only towed it twice and both trips about 100 miles round trip. This is in flat Florida tundra. Using 5 manual and...

I have had experience with three Camping World locations. 1. Chichester, NH They bailed me out over July 4 week while we were on a three month trip. I had had my Jayco repaired (ahem) at a Jayco dealer in St. Augustine. They really didn't fix the problem for a charge of almost $1900...

I have a 26RLS and a mark on the wall as to where it would be safe to install a towel rack would be appreciated. This is the weakest part of the trailer with the bathroom being very small. We us a springloaded shower curtain rod in the shower to hang our towels on.

Yes it does. The bike rack was one of the major reasons I bought the trailer. I got tired of the bike taking up most of the bed of the truck. Interesting to note that there are no instructions that comes with the bike rack. I even called customer service and they said no instructions. When...
