The contact owns a 2007 Newmar Kountry Star. The contact stated that three of the four mounting bolts on the satellite dish were fractured. The contact decided to remove the satellite dish to prevent a potential failure. The contact initially notified the vehicle manufacturer of the failure and referred him to the maker of the satellite dish. The satellite dish manufacturer stated that the installation of the satellite was the responsibility of the vehicle manufacturer. Neither of the manufacturers had taken responsibility for the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 75,000.
