    flexing frame and bad repairs

    Scott, I do not wish to debate this in a public forum. We have been trying to get this fixed since Nov 4. Heartlands initial response was less than stellar. Chris's track record in returning phone calls as promised has been no better. I find it interesting that as soon as I posted this querry on...

    Scott, I have a 2006 bighorn 3055rl. purchased 3/06. the front end has flexed enough to cause a gap of1/2 to 3/4 inch between the side wall and the front wall when hooked up.

    warranty issues while on the road

    What we have done in the past is to take a "don't ask, don't tell" approach. The manufactures don't really care if you fulltime and the disclosure is more of a "CYA" thing for them.

    warranty issues while on the road

    As a "fulltimer" how does Heartland handle warranty problems if I'm 4-5 states away from the dealer where I purchased my Bighorn. This is important since I may not be "home" for 8-12 months at a time. Thanks Barney

I love the idea of roller bearing drawers but has anyone had a problem with them opening up during transit? I don't see a way...
