Hot water tank works fine on electric but not on propane. Tries to light 3 times and then goes into DSI Fault. I can hear the solenoid click and smell gas but no spark at the ignitor / sensor. Removed it, cleaned and reset the gap, same problem. Removed the wire harness from the main board and...

While we usually snowbird in Florida, next year we will be heading down to Texas. Undecided if it would be better to cut the angle and shorten the drive or to head straight south to I-10 and then go west. Unfamiliar with winter weather on a southwest route. Anyone have experience and advice...

Heartland Recreational Vehicles is recalling certain 2018 Heartland Sundance XLT TT travel trailers. The vehicles may have been incorrectly equipped with Load Range C tires instead of Load Range D tires. Overloading the tires may result in tire failure, increasing the risk of a crash. Heartland...

Had my 2017 Sundance 3100 CK 5th wheel parked in Florida for 3 months. When it came time to leave I raised the front end to get it on the hitch and had some water run out from where the bottom of the front cap attaches to overhang. Obviously the caulking in this area is bad, but at least it let...

We are Illinois residents and will be headed for Florida on January 5th. We wont return home until April 20th so we will have to file our Illinois state taxes while on the road. I was assuming that a local H&R Block in Florida would be able to do this but thought it best to ask around. Any...

Will be entering Montgomery on I65 and leaving on US 231. Looks like: I65 to US 80 east US 80 east to US 231 south is the best route. Or am I missing something? Dave & Ronna

Wanted to inform others of the issues I’m having with the drawers and cabinet in our 2017 rear kitchen 3100CK. We bought the unit new this past June and have less than 3 thousand miles on it. The drawer below the fridge was the first to fail. The staples that hold the luan bottom to back of...

Will be headed down to Florida in January 2018. Looks like I can take either 231 or 331 from Montgomery AL to Interstate 10 in the FL panhandle. Would like to hear from others who have traveled either of these and what their experience was like. Dave & Ronna

We have a new 3100CK which has a camp Kitchen. I've noticed that with the camp kitchen open there is direct access from the sliding counter top to the area under the kitchen sink for insects and small critters to enter the camper. Have anyone come up with a fix for this? We love our camp...

We have a 2017 3100CK 5ver and the radio has the 3 zone buttons. While the volume control for zone 1 (living area) and zone 2 (bedroom) work fine the volume control for zone 3 (outside) cannot be turned down low enough. Even at the lowest volume setting we are blowing out our neighbors and...

Not currently having any issues but was checking out how to manually operate the lift system if it ever becomes necessary. The manual says to use an electric drill to spin the pump motor. But Lippert installed the pump so high up in the front compartment there is only about 2 inches of space...

Here’s the story on our new 3100 CK and how Heartland saved the day for us. After almost a year of searching different floor plans we discovered the 3100 CK, which fit 98% of our checklist. Midway RV in Grand Rapids MI had a 2016 on the lot so we took the 4 hour drive to have a look. This was...

We ordered our new 3100 CK 2 weeks ago and are hoping for delivery the first week of June. In the meantime I'm researching grills for the rear bumper, swing arm bracket. Heartland doesn't offer a grill as an option, just the bracket as standard equipment. Looks like the bracket itself is either...

We ordered our new 3100CK last Friday after taking the factory tour the day before. Mike Zuren, who gave us the tour at Heartland, informed us that the Sundance 5vers coming off the line will have 10 gallon hot water tanks, replacing the 6 gallon. We hope to take possession on June 1st but...

Hi folks, and Happy New Year, We will be ordering our new Sundance 3100CK in the coming weeks and that means choosing options for the camper. I thought it best ask the group which options they have found most useful and which options they have which aren't all that useful. Thanks for any...

We will be purchasing a new Sundance 5th wheel in the spring. While this is our second camper, its our first 5th wheel. I’m currently researching 5th wheel hitches that meet the required tow capacity and pin weight of the new unit. Admitting I know little to nothing about this type of hitch, I...

Anyone know if there is a yearly fee on the Good Sam Pilot RV Plus charge card? Couldn't see listed in the terms and conditions but wanted to ask those with more experience. Dave

I see some of the specs for the new 3100 CK are out, as well as the MSRP price list. Changes from the 3000 CK include stainless appliances, aluminum entry steps, Mor/Ryde suspension, friction hinge entry door and solar prep. Dave

Hi folks, Looking a purchasing the new 3100CK which is replacing the 3000CK. Wonder if a current 3000CK owner can tell me a few thinks about the hot water tank. Where is it located? Does it come with a bypass? How accessible is it? Thanks! And will keep you updated on the 3100CK we looked at...

I see Heartland produces different brands of travel trailers, much like GMC builds Chevrolet, Buick and Cadillac. But which brand is a Chevrolet and which is a Cadillac? I see there are similar model numbers in different brands so there must be some type of pecking order among the brands. I...

New to this forum so I'm not sure if this topic has been discussed in earlier posts. If so, I apologize. I have a 2012 F350 4X4 DRW truck with the 6.2L gas engine and a 4.3 rear axle ratio. I'm considering a Heartland mid-profile 5th wheel (9900 GVWR) and wondered if anyone has experience with...

Hello all, Dave and Ronna here. We recently sold our truck camper; I’ll just call it “SOB” (some other brand) as I’m not sure if it’s proper etiquette on this forum to mention it by name. I retired from the Chicago Police Department in January of 2013 and took the truck camper on the road...
