New 2016 35K Anniversary 30 year

2 of the new Bounders that I looked at have warped and squeaky floors. Is this common.? Who does the fix? I will not buy one of them but still looking. Going to another dealer tomorrow. Any suggestions for looking for a new one.
I did have an Entegra RBQ Any comments.

Jeez, that is not common. There's something wrong with those two particular units. What you describe suggests the sub-flooring is possibly separating from the framework below?

The Bounder is a staple of the industry in that class. I'd keep looking at other Bounders. What you found is unusual. Perhaps others have first hand experience with the new Bounder, and will chime in here.

Best of luck in your search, keep us posted!

Regards,
W.D.

Have been through well over 50 2016 Bounders and have not seen or heard warped or squeaky floors. Have also been reading everything I can on them online and don't recall any mentioning this. A Bounder is not an Entegra though (neither is the price)

The creaking may be related to some of the units that had roof leaks. The inside of my coach flooded during the pre delivery inspection due to a loose water fitting. I get some creaking in the floor now due to the adhesive being loosened by the water. Fleetwood is aware of the issue with my coach and will take care of it when we take the coach to the factory service center.

Congratulations.

May I ask if it is a 22K or a 24K chassis?

Bill

If you are referring to what is in your signature below what you post, then click on 'User CP' from the menu and the 'Edit Signature'

Where did you find the spec's on it MoJo? Fleetwood site doesn't show it (Web site is usually last to update), A GOOGLE search has some threads about a 36y or 36x but the links just say "coming soon" I am just curious as to some of the overall "standard" features list and interior looks. I have no doubt it is some where in the production line but even at the plant last month there is no literature or info on the 2017 models
