NHTSA Complaint #11325290 — 2018 THOR MOTOR COACH TUSCANY

THE FLOORING IN THE UNDERSIDE PASS-THROUGH STORAGE COMPARTMENTS IS COMPOSED OF A VERY THIN LAYER OF PLYWOOD SANDWICHED BETWEEN TWO LAYERS OF A VERY THIN ALUMINUM. THIS MATERIAL IS NOT WATERPROOF AND HAS SEPARATED CAUSING THE FLOORING TO LOOSE IT'S RIGIDITY. THIS AREA IS NORMALLY USED TO STORE ITEMS LIKE GRILLS, CARPETS TENTS AND OTHER NECESSITIES WHILE TRAVELING. THESE ITEMS HAS THE FLOOR WEAKENS COULD POSSIBLY FALL THROUGH ON TO THE HIGHWAY CAUSING HAZARDOUS CONDITION FOR THE COACH AND OTHER VEHICLES TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY. THIS ISSUE WAS DISCOVERED IN MY COACH A FEW MONTHS AFTER PURCHASED BEFORE ANY THING LIKE HAS OCCURRED. FROM THE INFORMATION I AM HEARING FROM OTHER OWNERS THIS IS A, WIDE SPREAD ISSUE WITH THIS COACH MANUFACTURER, SOME THEY HAVE AGREED TO REPLACE AND OTHERS THEY HAVE REFUSED. MY COACH IS SET TO GO BACK TO THE FACTORY REPAIR CENTER FOR NOW THE THIRD TIME FOR REPAIRS WITH THIS BEING ONE AND THEIR RESPONSE TO ME IS IT WILL BE REPAIRED OR REPLACED TO INDUSTRY STANDARDS. IF INDUSTRY STANDARDS ALLOWS THEM TO USE THE SAME MATERIAL THIS IS GOING TO CONTINUE TO HAPPEN AGAIN AND AGAIN UNTIL A CHANGE IS MADE. *TR
