24F Class C reviews

Review for the 2021 Thor Chateau 24F: We purchased our 2021 Thor Chateau 24F, brand new right off the show room floor from LA MESA RV in La Mesa California. We had just retired and planned to travel the United States. We have now had the Motorhome for five years and it has only 8000 miles on it. 2500 of those miles was from transporting it to California. Not for the lack of trying to use it but for the continuous MANUFACTURES defects. First test run the coach electrical system failed on the first night at 2AM. We took it in after a 2 month wait to get into service. We were told it was because we didn’t charge the battery all the way. The service manager stated it takes at least 48 hours of being plugged in. We plugged it in and took it out again. Again, the coach died the FIRST night at 2AM. Took it back after waiting for an appointment. This time we were told the battery that came with the coach was defective and needed to be replaced. This is not covered under the NEW VEHICLE WARRANTY. We replace the battery and still the coach would not make it ONE night. We finally replace the electrical system to the tune of $4000 and every worked great. Next, the motorhome was bottoming out on EVERY dip in the road. The service Manager at La Mesa RV told us it was because the plumbing for black tank was too low and this is not covered. I took the motorhome over to Weldtech and they explained to me and showed me that the entire suspension was inadequate for this motorhome. They replaced it for $7000 dollars and now no more bottoming out. Long story short it has been one thing after another. Thousands of dollars replacing parts and system on this Thor Motorhome. LA MESA RV AND THOR Motors are absolutely NO help and so far NOTHING has been covered under the new vehicle warranty or the $7000 dollar extended warranty. I hope this review will keep some of the couples who work all their lives and wish to travel the US in a motorhome to STAY AWAY FROM LA MESA RV AND THOR MOTORHOMES. Thank you for reading this review and have a blessed day. One last thing, We just return from a trip we had to cut short because the slide out came off the track and now the slideout is crooked.
