Still having LED ceiling lights burning out?

We have a 18 LA that is joy of our traveling, but have a on going issue with LED ceiling lights. They start to flicker and with in a day our two the stop working. We went to the factory in July to have all lights replaced after we had 22 of them burned out. Still losing a light a week with replacement LED lights and our LA customer service contacts says that this isn't a current problem with other coaches. Says they are going to get back with us to see what next. Are other owners having ceiling LED lights burning out?

YES! Have lost about eight in some fashion now in our 2018 Bay Star.

Did they replace your lights with the same model? My old lights had a metal shell, the new ones that they installed are plastic. We had ours replaced in December and the coach has been sitting in the driveway since with only occasional visits. No issues with the new lights yet.

Knock on wood, but in a year, we haven’t lost one. Have you checked your incoming voltage, at the socket?

The ceiling lights that Newmar replaced were the same as old ones. Will check voltage with meter when we replace the ones that are burned out now. They replaced a total of 83 in July of 18.

We only have 40 in the whole coach. Wow!
We have replaced 3 in the 18 months we have owned the rig. -Paul

No lights have burned out in our 2017 and we were full time for 2 years.

I’m at 9 and counting. Warranty appointment is in early June so I hope they get the problem fixed by then.
