The seems on the can where the truck frame and RV frame come together were needing additional support and in my case support as there was no attempt from side to side swaying on the vertical seems. I had to bolt through the vertical seems with bolts and a piece of metal. Construction had to be done and done by me since I bought the coach used. I also had to reinforce the water tank as it was just sitting on plastic. This plastic was sitting on top of the wiring harness for the truck. It was also sitting on the propane line for the water heater. Could have resulted in a fire. Again since I bought the coach used and dealership told me to go pound sand.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JAYCO SENECA. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO LONG ISLAND FREIGHTLINER (1365 LAKELAND AVE, BOHEMIA, NY 11716) TO BE REPAIRED BECAUSE THE BEARINGS FAILED. THE MOTOR HOME WAS THEN TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO HAVE A SPACER BOLTED THAT HELD THE CONTROL ARM HANGER BEARING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE MOTOR HOME WAS STILL NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 4,700.
No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
