Help with an Entegra purchase

I am close to buying a gently used 2015 Anthem. I hope this group can alert me to items to review carefully before the purchase. I have searched and have not found any repetitive issues, but I want to tap into the collective wisdom here. Thanks in advance.

Shade motors are a continuing problem. You want the red motors. Also you may want to check on radiator replacement. Spartan got a bad batch but were good about replacing them. Make sure your aqua hot pumps have been replaced with the newer pumps. Someone here will chime in with the name of the new pumps but I believe its Buehler. Also the clamps on the AH lines need to be upgraded to constant tension or worm drive clamps. Those were the major issues. I'm sure others will come up with additional problem areas.

Incidentally, these issues were all covered under warranty.

Shade motors are a issue in that year, but Entegra has been standing behind them past the 2 year warrenty.
Make sure the ball joint recall has been done, or gets done.

Mine has been a good coach to me. A few minor issues, which Entegra stood behind. Nothing that I would consider a issue with that year, just minor things as most coaches have.
Ironically, I like my coach, but the wife has been dropping hints at wanting a new one.......well, more than hints, she is looking.....lol.
It's usually me who gets the itch to upgrade.

Good luck with the coach if you buy it. You will love the ride and handle of it.

Highly recommend getting the coach fully inspected. Just sold our house and they picked their inspector. It is worth the costs just for your own piece of mine

Thanks everyone. I've lurked here for a few months while we were deciding what to buy. I appreciate the enthusiasm you show for Entegra. I will definitely check theses items with my mechanic/inspector.
