The lights stay on showing temps buth plugged in and while traveling.

We have been traveling this summer. Our fridge starts off a 0 on freezer side and 37 degrees on fridge side. We turn on inverter and after 5 hours on the road the fridge side is still at 37 but the freezer is anywhere from 23 to 30 degrees. I tied the doors with the Velcro strip that came...

We plan to attend as will be volunteers for Canyon Lake this fall and winter. If we can't make it for camping, will definitely stop in to meet and visit. We are currently in WV for the summer. We will make reservations today. Look forward to this event.

The bottom leaf broke in two causing the spring to shift and the other side also started to shift but caught it before any damage.

Has anyone else experienced their 7 leaf spring breaking during travel? We had the right rear spring break apart. Just lucky no serious damage - just frustration trying to find a 7 leaf spring locally (Galveston, TX). The factory was awesome and sent me a new spring to replace the temporary...

We have a 2017 Landmark Newport and have numerous issues since purchasing it. Explore USA in Kyle, TX has not been the easiest to get things done, but many many thanks to the Heartland Service Reps to date. They have always stepped up and assisted us in all issues. The latest was a broken...

Andy, Jere and I were at the Fort Worth Show as well. Sorry we missed you. We looked at the 2018 New Port. Some nice changes from our 2017 but overall we are very pleased with ours. We will start our travels this spring from Waco, TX to Atlanta, GA to West Virginia and back to San Antonio for...

Thanks everyone for your great information. If we get one, it will be definitely a vented one. Merry Christmas to one and all.

We are considering adding a all in one washer/dryer before we start our 6 month journey this coming spring. What issues can we expect and ventless vs. vented. Any input will be greatly appreciated.

We have a portable induction burner for when we need three burners or for a large pan. Fits easily in storage. - - - Updated - - - We really like the induction. We were cooking on them before we bought the Newport.

Re: New Port Roof Issues Thanks for the info, it does make sense. The only way I would feel good about a full replacement is if it were done at the factory service center.

Anyone having the issue of something (nails or staples) poking up from under roof membrane along the front and rear sides? First I noticed the rear and yesterday I found the same along both front sides. The dealer wanted to replace the roof in April but Heartland wanted to pull the membrane...

Good morning, Dave. Our son, Ryan Young, and his wife Gwen will be attending the Rally in Site 163. We are so looking forward to the Rally as we start our newest and biggest adventure yet. The timing and location are just perfect. Have an outstanding Fourth of July. Kerry and Jere

Just made our reservation at Stone Mountain. We will be arriving 04/16 and leaving 04/24. We are in Site 164. I am retiring from the VA at the end of March and this will be our first trip. Our son lives in Atlanta. Looking forward to our new adventures. See you all in April.:D

We were having the same issues with our bed and elected to upgrade to the SLEEPNUMBER 5R king size. Great upgrade and we added the wedge pillow for under the head of the bed. We both sleep so much better. Camping World sells this bed and I believe it is on sale this month.

Wishing everyone a very safe and Merry Christmas from Jere and I, Waco, TX.

Kudo's to the Service Department at Heartland and Explore USA (Terry G.) in Kyle, TX. Andy W., Jeff and Dustin are great to work with. We took our Newport to the dealer last week and had photos taken of our concerns/issues. Plans are under way to get us set for the body shop and Heartland is...

Thanks for the great information. Andy W. called me yesterday and is assisting in getting the issue resolved. I am thinking ours is a glue and not water issue as well. It has been raining all morning here and no change in the bubble. In retrospect, I only noticed the bubble when the temp was...

I just noticed a delamination spot on the left front of our 2017 Newport that is barely over 6 months old. I have sent pictures to Heartland Service and Explore USA in Austin, TX where we bought it. What options for repair such as this and where?

Our 2017 was built in March before the mid-year changes. Sure glad we ordered when we did. Selling the sizzle (which sounds like what they are going to) is only short lived. This will be our home for many years and quality was paramount in our selection. So far it has been hands down far...

Heartland is over nighting the upgraded version to the o-ring issue. Will let you all know when I get and install it.

We made it back to Waco. Thanks for putting together a great Rally. We really enjoyed it. Not sure, but we think our water check valve may have gone crazy. It cycles water to the fresh tank no matter what position the control knob is in. We will have out local repair guy stop by and...

We plan on retiring in two years which is why we bought this year - gives us two years of warranty before hitting the road around the Country. So far everything major has been fixed without hesitation from the great folks at Heartland Service. I have a local repair facility that Heartland...

I installed the Furrion back up camera. Good clarity and range. I pulled about 100 yards away from RV before losing picture. I like the fact you can turn the camera on while traveling to see what is going on behind you. Very easy install.

We had the dealer install the surge protector. We ordered ours without carpet in the living room (personal choice). This forum is awesome on a wealth of information and friendship. The EMS is a great benefit. The inside shower dimensions is 45" wide and 25" deep. Congratulations and look...

Re: How to follow-up on LM 365 Lighted Sign orders That is perfect, thanks. Have a great day and God Bless!!!

Re: How to follow-up on LM 365 Lighted Sign orders We, too would have the LM365 left off had we known. The other issue was the power supply cord was too short so I bought an extension but it makes the sign stick out at the bottom. Still looking for a 90 degree USB plug to fit. But it works...

We attended our first HOC Rally in Wetherford, TX before we had our Newport and were welcomed with open arms. We have a 2011 GMC 3500 dually duramax 4X4 and pulls our Newport effortlessly. This truck does not have the B&W and I miss it, but it came with a Reese 20K. We will be at the Canton...

We are looking forward to seeing everyone next month. We are number 11 and have Site 7 reserved. We may get in early - just waiting on a new schedule where I work, the 9th at the latest as we are coming from Waco. Safe travels for everyone.

We too had several bad experiences at the Ft. Worth Store in sales and service. I have two very good friends working at the Kyle Store. Paul Tammaro in sales and Terry Gomez is their Warranty Clerk. Unfortunately, service centers are all about the same. I have been lucky to find a RV repair...

On our recent trip to Kansas we had to change out a tire. The tire carrier flat wore me out trying to get it to slide from under the coach. Since then, I attached two rollers allowing it to roll out rather than slide out. Hopefully the photo comes thru.

You are correct - you can put your hands on the glass and not get burnt. But the heating element puts out heat into the drawer. We don't put anything in that drawer that is affected by the heat. We used the portable inductions before we got this one. Really like cooking on it.

We got our 2017 Newport in late April. We really like the induction but we noticed that the drawer immediately below gets very warm. I have added some ventilation holes and covered it with a very nice looking metal grate. You can't see the holes and is cosmetically appealing. Will see if it...

While doing your delivery PDI be sure to check under the slides mainly looking at the brackets that connect the slide rods. It is a "L" shape bracket that can break easily. Also check the rollers under the slide. Ours had two rollers rolling over each other causing extra stress on the slide...

Made our reservation yesterday. Will be in Site 7. See you all on the 9th. Have a safe and fun summer.

It is the L bracket on the kitchen (fridge) slide.

Our 2017 has a broken ram support bracket. Factory service is sending a new L bracket to be re-welded to the bracket. While checking to see what caused the bracket to fail we found that two of the rollers under the fridge side are overlapping by about an inch which causes the slide to tweek...

Welcome to the family. We just got our 2017 Newport two weeks ago. Overall very happy. Had a bracket break on the dining room slide. Appears to have been broke for sometime due to amount of rust on the bracket. Factory authorized mobile repair to come out to our site. We have to pay the...

We took delivery Wednesday. Just went through our first storm with no leaks. We had some hard winds that shook us.

We are working with Explore in Kyle, TX. We have joined the HOC and attended our first Rally last month. Excited about the whole process.
