Data refreshed

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

WE USED OUR NEW RAPTOR FOR A SHORT TRIP & THE REFRIGERATOR STOPPED WORKING USING AC. WE MADE ARRANGEMENTS TO HAVE IT SERVICED AT A KEYSTONE DEALER. THEY FELT THE GFI WAS TRIPPED & RESET IT. WE HAD DONE ALL THAT TYPE OF TROUBLESHOOTING & WERE NOT CONFIDENT THE ISSUE WAS THAT SIMPLE. IT WAS WINTER AND WE PUT THE UNIT IN STORAGE. WE GOT IT OUT LAST WEEK TO PREPARE FOR OUR 1ST TRIP OF THE YEAR. THE REFRIGERATOR STILL DID NOT WORK AND THE GFI WOULD NOT RESET. WE STARTED TO TRACE THE PROBLEM OURSELVES. MY HUSBAND CHECKED SEVERAL OUTLETS TO SEE WHAT WAS WORKING & NOT. IT SEEMED TO BE AT THE KITCHEN TIPOUT. APPARENTLY THE ELECTRIAL SHORTED OUT UNDER THE TRAILER AT THE KITCHEN TIPOUT & BURNED AND MELTED THE POORLY RUN WIREING, CONNECTORS AND INSULATION. WE WERE ASLEEP WHEN THE DAMAGE OCCURED. WE COULD OF DIED. WE CONTACTED 2 DEALERS AND THE MANUFACTURER. THEIR ONLY COMMENT WAS TO MAKE ANOTHER APPOINTMENT. *TR
