What this page shows
Everything below is an owner-reported complaint submitted to NHTSA about the 2022 Fleetwood Flair, grouped by the component NHTSA recorded on the report. These are not confirmed defects, and they are not recalls. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a category with more reports in it is not evidence that a part is defective.
Complaints are reports submitted by owners and drivers to NHTSA. They are not verified and do not establish that a defect exists.

What the reports in each category say, in the owners' own words
Body & structure
Reports naming the vehicle structure, frame, body panels, doors, hood and trim.
From owner reports, verbatim
What component failed & is it available for inspection? Multiple critical safety systems failed, and the vehicle is available for inspection. Primary failures include the main entry door lock assembly and a complete electrical power failure to the LP propane safety leak detector. Secondary failures include malfunctioning front hood locks, a defective propane tank refueling sensor, and a cracked factory water heater weld. How was safety put at risk? The main entry door lock assembly failed mechanically, physically trapping occupants inside the living coach with no mechanical release and forcing an emergency window escape. This same door mechanism unlatched and swung completely open while transit on public highways, creating an extreme crash/ejection hazard. Additionally, the total electrical failure to the LP propane detector left occupants with zero protection or warning against toxic or explosive gas leaks. Has the problem been reproduced/confirmed by a dealer? Yes. All ongoing mechanical and structural failures have been thoroughly documented and confirmed across multiple repair visits by Camping World RV Sales. Furthermore, the electrical propane detector failure and structural roof compromises were explicitly reproduced and confirmed via an independent 45-point safety inspection. Has the vehicle or component been inspected…? Authorized dealer technicians have extensively inspected and documented these safety defects during multiple detentions totaling over 220 cumulative days out of service. The manufacturer (REV Group) has been formally served a legal demand letter regarding these structural and life-safety failures. Were there any warning lamps…? A chronic Chassis Check Engine Light first appeared in July 2023. However, the critical life-safety failures—the mechanical door lock trapping occupants/opening in transit and the complete power failure to the LP propane leak detector—occurred suddenly without any prior warning lamps or diagnostic symptoms.
