And Ya'll notice I said I took the fireplace itself back, RIGHT? I am not about to let them touch my camper unless I am there watching their every move! It is the same way if I was to have someone do a repair in my house. Which doesn't happen very often!

Notice the missing fireplace under the TV in front of the chair...

I am a bit mechanical myself, worked as an auto mechanic for 12 years before I took a factory mechanic job. I can only imagine what would have happened if we treated people like this at the Ford dealer I worked for. My whole isssue is , I did not agree to buy a damaged repaired unit. I bought a new vehicle and expect the manufacturer to stand behind their product. After all of the issues when we first got it, I would have been happy for them to replace my unit with one that was right from the get go. Would have even payed the price increase if it was a newer model year.Now we all know how that's going to work out. As far as fixing this thing myself, I absolutely REFUSE to do anything to it while it's under warranty. As I told the Keystone people-You built the big piece of C__P- not me. At least have the guts to fix your own mistakes! I guess my biggest problem is I went from a Cedar Creek 5er to this, and the quality is SO much less. We never had an issue with slideout floors being so weak. We use the dinette alot when we travel at rest stops to grab a bite to eat and sometimes hang out with the grandkids. This is now no longer an option as we're leery of even letting the kids sit on it.

Hi.............We are in Az. and it is cool........Turned on our furnace last night and all it does is growl.The motherboard has apparently gone...Then we turned on our fireplace and it turns off when the blower is on high........It will run on low.......Called Dimplex themselves and they are sending a new panel for the top....We bought this Montana Aug. 1 year ago and have had major problems with it...they have fixed most things but our dream of this expensive retirement unit has torn us apart.............The warranty is gone on most things and the expense it overwhelming at times...................
