This seams to be a common occurrence.
Mine has been brought to Josams in Orlando 2X to try and get the coach to stop pulling right. NO GO. Was told by the techs that this coach will never drive straight.
Was told to bring it to Entegra as they have Spartan techs there and they would get it fixed. NO GO. Was told that it is within specs. Shop Manager admitted that the coach still pulled to the right.
Was asked to bring it to Spartan itself and they would definitely get it fixed. NO GO. Was told once again that it is within specs. Was told that minor adjustments were made and I should see a difference.
Entegra suggested new front tires as the original tires sometimes would cause the coach to veer off course. NO GO. Actually, like the ride better with the old tires.
Brought back to Spartan again as they were bringing in the axle mgfr and suspension mgfr. NO GO. Was told once again that the coach was within specs and that since the coach is not IFS that the coach will pull depending on the crown of the road. That they did not experience the pull to the right.
My steering wheel was also off center, not only from the standpoint of the wheel being turned, but also off center from the drivers seat itself. They have been able to correct this for the most part.
I owned another coach that had the front I-Beam and I did not have this much trouble trying to get the coach to drive straight.
Needless to say
I will say, that it appears every attempt has been made to have this coach go straight down the road by Entegra. It is my humble opinion that this Spartan Chassis is not all it is cracked up to be.
I still watch the air pressure drop as I am driving down the road. I turn off the coach for two days and the air pressure is gone. But, after 3 attempts to have it fixed, it is within Spartan specs.
Just for the record. I am picky, I expect when I pay for something that it performs as advertised. I absolutely do not buy into the industry standard comment "it like having your house in an earthquake every time your drive your rv down the road" BS. I have owned boats big and small that have gone through much worse that these coaches go through and never had the amount of issues as this coach. It cannot go on the road even one time without something failing, falling off, or just plain stop working. Does Entegra step up and fix all this things? To the best of their ability I believe, however, the time and effort to have all these things fixed every time is exhausting.
I have made some bonehead purchases in my time but this coach is turning out the be the worst so far.
Sorry for the rant. It is just frustrating when I see others having the same issues yet I am being led to believe that my coach is the exception and I must be over exaggerating on the issues.
Have a great day.
