Consumer Description

2014 HEARTLAND CYCLONE 3110 TOY HAULER. UNIT HAS ABOUT 4,400 MILES SINCE PURCHASED 2/14. UPON DROPPING THE BELLY PAN TO FIX A SEWER PIPE I SAW THIS. UNIT HAS MULTIPLE HOSES AND WIRES RUNNING THRU HOLES IN CHASSIS WITH NO GROMMET PROTECTION FROM CHAFING AND SHORTING OUT ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS WHICH COULD CAUSE A FIRE OR MAKE RV COMPONENTS INOPERABLE. ALSO HYDRAULIC LINES AND WATER LINES ARE RUN THE SAME WAY, CAUSING LEAKS AS THE PIPES CHAFF ON THE METAL EDGES THEY ARE RUN THRU. THERE ARE WIRES RUN BETWEEN THE FRAME AND UNDERBELLY SHOWING SIGNS OF WEAR. THE GRAY AND BLACK HOLDING TANKS WERE BELLIED BADLY BECAUSE THEY HAD STRAPS THAT WERE IMPROPERLY INSTALLED. THE TANKS STRAPS WERE 3-4" BELOW THE BELLIED TANK BOTTOMS HAVING NO USEFUL PURPOSE. THE PLASTIC TANKS COULD HAVE SPLIT SPILLING WASTE AND SEWER CHEMICALS ON THE ROAD. WE HAD TROUBLE GETTING THE GAS SMELL OUT OF THE FRONT TANKS. THERE IS HOT AIR HEATER HOSE THAT IS KINKED ,BLOCKING THE HEATED AIR FROM EFFECTIVELY HEATING THE GARAGE AREA. *TR
