This is so sad. This problem has been going on for over two years as told by varies owners with varies types of rigs, and yes it happened to me. Why can't this be stopped. I know several people who sent their tires in for inspection with no action. I was asked to take mine to a designated...

HI I have a BH 3685 . With the slides in you can access the refrigerator, bathroom, pantry and front closet/washer/dryer. You cannot access the bedroom. Hope this helps.

Congratulations Heartland makes a good RV. However the tires they use are very low quality. If you are getting TOWMAX tires, look out. I don't know anyone that has a unit weighing over 13500 that hasn't had tire trouble. With less than 3000 miles I just had to replace all four. Good luck.

I agree with cookie. I have a 2007 2500 HD 4x4 duramax with a 6 ft bed and pull a Bighorn 3685 dry weight 11000 gross 15500. It does fine. Having said that, if I were a full timer and loading it down accordingly I might want to get a bigger truck. I have made trips mostly in the east and...

Well once again and again and again the same story. How can anyone with a conscience keep allowing this to happen. If Heartland puts 614s on Landmarks why can't they offer a switch out at their cost plus shipping or just authorize local buys with a dollar reimbursement representing their cost...

I bought the Magellian RoadMate RV9165T-LM from Camping world (very expensive). Unfortunately it does not work as advertised. I have loaded the truck/rig data in order to avoid places I can't go, but it doesn't do any good. Several times I have had to over ride it and change the route. I...

Ok I got it and sorry didn't mean to rub you the wrong way. Just that if we all keep fixing the problem out of our own Pocket Heartland and Towmax/TREDIT will still keep putting people in danger and making a lot of money doing it. I posted the following on another site and is worth repeating...

Re: ATF: Big Country - Towmax Tires Sorry I don't trust Tredit. When I suspected one of my new tires was very badly over heating I contacted Tredit. They had me, at my expense, tow my Bighorn several miles to a Discount Tire dealer for whom Tredit also delivesr tires. They looked at the tire...

Yes I know about that service. Some have not been so fortunate as you to get fast service. I did notice u replaced your tires which, I assume, still had good tread etc. Why, since the service was so good??

I am excited the HL is looking at this problem. I have been beating this drum for over a year now. I have friends that could have been seriously hurt on I 95 when one blew and took out the rear quarter of the 5er. I have know several people with TOWMAX problems and they keep getting the same...

I too can not believe Heartland is not doing something about this. We should stand in front of all dealers selling Heartland with these tires and hold up signs that warn people. Perhaps then the dealers will do something, like refuse to sell Heartland with these tires. A very good friend of...

I have these tires on my 2013 Bighorn. My good friend had these on his 2012 Big Country. Within a month he had two blowouts causing damage to the 5er. He finally got a few bucks from Heartland/Dynamic and replaced them with GY 614s. All seems to be good now. Based upon this I contacted...

I have upgraded to a 2013 BH and although the new hitch cover is good looking it presents a real problem when trying to make a sharp turn the new cover hits the bed of the truck. I have friends who also have a new Heartland RV with the same cover and are experiencing the problem. I have raised...

Absolutely concur on all accounts.

I have a new Rand Mcnalley and it does not work as advertised so why would I want another one. Another product that reads well, but ???????????

I would have responded to this sooner, but I somehow missed it. I had a similar problem and after much trying to solve it, I discovered the diagram and wiring did not match. It proved out that the cable and sat actual installation were backwards. If I hooked the cable up to the sat I got both...

Re: ATF: Sundance - Light Switch in Control Panel Actually the response does not completely answer the question. I have a 2007 3200ES and although the answer is correct in that one switch is for the HW heat and one for the outside light, there are three switches and I have not figured out what...

Augusta??? Where GA or MA?

I know there are always issues about any new technology, but I will tell you that my Garmin has gotten me out of more trouble than into trouble. Yes it took me downtown Charleston SC with a 5th wheel and I had to do some fancy driving to get out, but when I told it to get me out it did. It...

Hey DMAX154 have you done any heavy mountain pulling? I am getting ready to pull some back roads in WV. Although I have driven truck in WV before and know the lay of the land, I have not pulled my 3200 Sundance with the Durmax in the mountians yet.

I had the same problem with the Sundance 3200ES. I asked the customer service and the reply was as follows: "There is a line stubbed out under the unit that has a valve on it. The other option is to go to the outside of the unit to the water heater vent and open it. Turn the WH off and take...

Thedonald I have a 2007 Sundance 3200 ES and a lot of this sounds oh to familiar. Especially the water issues and the stuck slides. I have both. In addition to the water problems already stated, I also have had problems with water coming around the closed slides when in transit during the rain...

This really raises the issue of traveling from the US into Canada. I live in FL and one of my sons lives in Ottawa. Any information about what I would need to do if crossing into Canada with my 5er at about 12,000lbs? I have asked locally and they don't know.

I just had an experience that was much the same. While pulling through a gate at a friends farm I did not notice the gate olpen wide enough at the top, but sitting at a slant and therefore much closer at the bottom. I caught the bottom of the awning pole which tore off the fender skirt and...

That is very interesting, since none of the Heartland dealers I have talked to even mentions it. It is also clear from the chatter on this site that others are not being helped either. So, when is Heartland going to admit this problem and issue a "recall" fix? Since you say they have known...

Forest Thanks for the advise. I will follow-up. However it is a shame we would have to purchase something additional from Heartland to solve a clear design problem. Thedonald

I purchased a 2007 Sundance 3200ES in Feb and this issue was on of the first I ran into. I looked on this site and sure enough this issue was being discussed. In my case and those being discussed it was while under way not while parked. I have talked to several others about this and...

I have a Sundance 3200ES 34' which I pull with a 2007 GMC 2500HD duramax diesel and allison transmission. I have made two long trips with it and love it. Pulls great even in overdrive with cruise control on and study as a rock. Great miliage as well. Good luck.

Can't help much except to say I have a Sundance 3200ES 34.1' with a weight of 12,000 and a hitch of 1900. That is not to far off what you are getting, about a thousand on each, and I just pulled it from PA to Orlando with a 2007 2500 HD diesel with allison. It was a piece of cake. I stayed in...

I just bought a one year old 3200ES and was told by the previous owner he had this same problem. He stuffed some kind of filler wrapped in plastic to stop it because he also could not get it fixed. Obviously this is not an isolated issue.
