Does this make sense?
In Sept 2013 I bought a slightly used Anthem. Totally happy with the purchase but when contacting Entegra I was told my warranty ended in Feb 2014. That would mean the previous owner took delivery of a 2013 in Feb of 2012. I can see maybe ordering it then but I can't see delivering a 2013 in month 2 of 2012. Getting ready to call and question this but thought I'd get some info on it first.
Thanks for any info.

How long was the warranty? I thought one year was the normal.

You're right -- doesn't make sense. Entegra warranty department should be able to tell you when it was first registered.

I would call Entegra for the registration date. I know there have been 2015 FW's on my dealer's lot since late January, so it's plausible your PO purchased a 2013 in early 2012.

You need to ask specific questions when calling the warranty department. First of all:
Does the warranty transfer to the second owner?
If it does, is the transfer automatic, or does it require filling out some manufacturer forms?
Does the warranty start from the time the dealer took possession, or when it was registered by the first owner?
If it's the first owner ask the original registration date?
It is possible the original owner purchased it long before the supposed model year actually came to pass. We ordered a 2013 Winnebago Adventurer in February of 2013. The 2014 model year was introduced a few days after it was delivered in April of 2013. I understand Winnebago is now giving "Sneak Previews" of the 2015 model year coaches that are supposed to go on the market within a few weeks.
All the other manufacturers seem to be doing the same thing. If the trend continues you could be buying a 2020 model in the spring of 2015

It's all about the original delivery date. Just call Entegra and they should be able to tell when the original delivery date was. I just sold my 2013 Cornerstone, original delivery date November 2012, and Entegra warrants the new owner until November 2014. All that was necessary was to advise them and nothing misses a beat...

Carfax or similar would provide original registration date methinks.

Sure it is possible. The 2013's had allot of changes to them and were being showcased early. I do recall several 2013's at the January 2012 Tampa supershow and if I'm not mistaken they were all sold by the end of the show that week so that would of made them 1/12 deliveries on a 2013 model. Just like this year when they had a 2015 Cornerstone displayed in 1/14

They actually made very few 2012's. Entegra made a bunch of changes(primarily the Garard awnings) so they decided to go to the 2013 model year very early.

Actually, the 2013 model year started in December 2011. So, it's very possible to have a 2013 with the warranty already expired.

I ordered a 2014 in Sept, the 2015 will starting hitting the lots before I take delivery, making it a one year old model already. So yes it is possible. If Entegra has a lot of changes they want to add, the don't make them options like other MH manufactures, they just change model years and roll them out a year early.
I read in the owners manual that Entegra's 2 year warranty is transferable one time during the two year period.
