This has been a contiuned issue with not only the Alpine but Montana as well. Especially with Front Slide outs. The unit is cracking at the lower front frame of the slide out. Causing dangerous cracks to the inner frame. The unit is over flexing and therefore causing the Welds to break , which will cause the walls to crack and you could end up with extreme damage. My unit ended up with $20,000 worth of damage. I was lucky my insurance paid it, but at that time we did not know that it was a frame issue. It was not until after the fact and after it was repaired that if it were known that it was a frame issue the unit would not have been covered. Therefore we would have had to pay out of pocket. Keystone and also Lippert refused any warranty. I am the second owner and it was 3 yrs old when purchased. Electrical issues. Unit almost caught fire, had smoke coming from upper vents and it took out the Microwave and Dryer. Wiring is not installed with the best of safety. Plug at rear of unit shorted out while hooked to NEW shore power. The whole drivers side of unit lost power. Replaced plug at rear of unit, manufacture refused to check out. Since then we have had power issues with RV. Had to replace Microwave and still have yet to replace dryer. Plugs in walls are very cheap, wires of crimpt and not wrapped and tightened down like residental wall plugs.
- Unknown or other
The frame is cracked above the spring hangers.
