I'm sure some 3D modeling wind resistance suggested the low chin to give the lowest COF for the best mileage. Problem is, its not practical.

I did hit bottom this week, but it is on the very bottom and can't see it unless you lay down and look up.

Low front end

Well just got back from factory service and had the front end looked at they tell me it is all correct and will not do anything to fix this problem. Ride height is correct. well when this cause an accident and someone gets hurt which I hope does not happen there will be a law suite for sure as I have paper work from them telling me that it is safe and everything is in specs. they build these things with no reguard to safety or problems. hope everyone complames to the site listed here there is only 4 complates so lets get some more in and get this problem solved

Had this repaired 3 times, in the end I repaired it myself to keep the drawer from coming out. Latch mounting bracket did not have any lock washers/nuts, so I installed them myself.

The front of the coach is very low and hits on every dip in the road. It is so low I drag going in and out of gas stations and RV parks, anywhere their is dip,bump or incline of any kind. My first incident happened when the generator door flew open when I had to hit the brakes hard. At the same time I had to swerve to miss a vehicle that pulled out in front of me and ended up on a rock on the side of the road, upon backing off the rock it tore off the front cover of the generator slide. This cost over $15,000 to repair. My second incident; I was driving down major road at 65 MPH where there was a traffic light which turned red so I let up on the gas to let the jake brake slow me down to about 50 MPH the light then turned green so I started to speed up when I hit the intersection where there was a dip in the road which could not be seen and the coach bottomed out and smashed the front fiberglass into the asphalt road and cracked the windshield. This cost over $15,000 again to have repaired.

Question is how can I get the RAV Group to take responsibility for this issue and redesign the front of the coach so it will not be so low?
How ironic! My husband and I JUST test-drove that model this afternoon and on the way back to the dealer, the generator door opened and we knew instantly something wasn't right. We drove a few more feet and we could hear it moving. Got into the dealer and saw that it was opened about 20" and two bolts were bent - they were not able to close it and it had to go into service. Love this group.
