What I noticed on the OPs initial post is that many if not most of the problems noted are industry 'standard' products that are used in virtually every RV from basic entry level right up to the custom built New Horizon or Spacecraft RVs. That industry too is limited in that while they may have different brand names, they are owned by Dometic, Lippert and a couple others to fill the needs. They were probably all great at conception but now these products are driven by stockholders that demand a good return on their investment which means the bottom line on their financial reports needs to be way on the plus side.


As a for instance, those long magnet wires noted weren't Keystone's doing but either Dexter or LCI, one of which assembled those axles. Is Keystone ultimately responsible? Yes, but they in turn have to fix the problem and hopefully can recoup the cost of repairs from Dexter/LCI and hopefully force them into better products.


Then in 2020 into 2021, the pandemic and the available skilled workforce for whatever RV product you name sure didn't help.


With all that said, the RV industry needs better direction and quality control too.
