      We had warranty issues with our dynamax and they basically blew us off. We had an issue where the paint was defective in an area. The dealership actually agreed with us and sent in a warranty claim. Dynamax refused to fix it. I called Dynamax personally and was absolutely ignored. Dynamax went so far as to call us liars when it came to our issue. This company will not stand behind their product (beware). I have never experienced this bad of customer service from a company. If I would have known they were this bad with customer service, I would have never purchased it. Stay clear of this brand.

      Mercedes Sprinter is excellent. Paint job is beautiful. eGen seems to work fine, but is very complex to operate. BIGGEST PROBLEM IS ALMOST NO CABINET SPACE!!! I called the factory to ask why no cabinets over the theater seats or the bed and they said weight. (Seems that other brands can have these cabinets, why not Dynamax. I am looking to trade it in and its a 2025 model, and brand new. It just isn't liveable without enough storage inside.

      Have 24 ft Dynamax isata 3 with recliners instead of table and chairs. This RV is just Ok. Not sure if we would buy it again. It is 4 Years old I thought that we were buying a luxury model RV but the quality is marginal. The shower walls needed to be supported as the vinyl or plastic was not adhering to the walls well. Also the bottom of the shower leaked and I had to put caulking at the bottom of the shower to keep the water in the shower. The batteries did not last very long and needed replacements after 3 years. The outdoor shower leaked and had to be fixed. The 3 way water input dial broke off and we had to have a costly repair on the road. Last thing to happen today is the automatic leveling system quit. Repairs and maintenance are very expensive. The trim inside the Isata is flimsy. The curtain for the bed above the drivers and passenger seat has screws that fall out of the track that hold the curtain. Service at the Mercedes dealer is very expensive. Single air conditioner is small and cannot keep up with temperatures 90 degrees or higher. It is the best driving RV that we have had though. Knowing all of this I do not think that I would buy another. We had a 29 ft Class C Searcher with a Ford for 19 years!!!! No troubles with the Searcher. Not costly to maintain. Disappointed in the Isata 3 Dynamax.

      Dear Jamie: My husband Bill & I are writing to say thank you so much for all you have done for us. We are tremendously impressed with Forest River and how they have handled our complaints. We originally went to the dealership where we bought our RV and they said that they had contacted Forest River and were told nothing could be done about the issues regarding the peeling bathroom door and rear upper shock attachment bolts that had snapped off. This is when we took matters into our own hands and contacted Forest River on our own. You wrote us back immediately saying you would look into the matter and get back to us. Within a few weeks we had a brand new bathroom door delivered to us and then a few weeks later a cheque arrived in the mail for $500.00 compensating us for the work that the Mercedes Dealership charged us. We are totally impressed by the integrity of Forest River and how this was handled. We are going to be giving Forest River a great review online! Thanks again, Jayne & Bill

      I purchased this RV used with 4,300 miles on it. Had a 35 foot Class A for 20 years previously. Sold the Class A and purchased this 2 years later. Wanted some thing small enough to camp in National Parks and do a little boondocking. Big enough water, grey and blackwater tanks to camp for several days. Very easy to drive, plenty of power and can tow up to 7,500 pounds. Just the right size for 2 people.

      The automatic levelers on the front collapsed and had to be totally replaced. After inspection, it was determined they were not installed properly and the design was faulty. I contacted the manufacturer and received no help. They wined about warranty being expired. I claim this is a manufacturing problem and a severe safety hazard. After almost four months, they to pay for parts but nothing else and want to jack me around with paperwork. I'm going to file a claim with the National Traffic Safety people as the jacks could fall off or at the least leave you stranded with the jacks will not retract. By the way, the fuel economy is not that good.
