Forest River Sabre Cobalt Travel Trailer reviews

Bought new August 2021 at camping world Indy. Delivered with bust shower door, door wasn't in till October. We used for 45 day's and had to bring it back for warranty work in December and now parts are y expected in till mid May . Everything from screws coming up in flooring to awning falling off water leaks ect. I have been paying for a RV I can't use and 1 year warranty will be done. All I want is a trailer or money back. Thanks for rant. Show less

We bought our RV just a couple of months ago in a sabre 2021,and it has leaks everywhere, we barely fixed one thing, when it already leaks elsewhere, the hoses are loose, the curtains are of very poor quality.we supossed get a rv to have no issues and we are very disappointed,if we try to make a appoitment they have to space until 3 months.

The rv is a 2021 Sabre cobalt 37 FLL, it wouldn’t let me pick the option for some reason. We bought the camper about 6 months ago and have had nothing but issues. The first night we stayed in it the converter blew a fuse which left me and my family in the dark for several hours until me and my wife finally found the issue and replaced the 30 amp fuse, we have replaced several fuses since then because it will randomly blow them. The knobs for the outside kitchen stove are too close to the burners and they melted the first time we used the stove. The bathroom sink plumbing wasn’t tightly put together so it leaked for a couple of weeks until we saw the water build up under the sink. The glue on the outside of the camper where the floor meets the wall came off so whenever it would rain water would dump in the inside and flood our floors, we had to screw it back down with black screws we got from a near by dealership. The mirror door for the bed room closet came un stapled and ripped off the hinges when my wife opened it. It’s a nice camper with nice features but the overall workmanship put in to manufacturing it is terrible. It seems like it was put together on a Friday around 4:45 in the afternoon. Show less

Was very excited about purchasing my 2021 sabre 37fbt until after the first time it rained and water was coming in through the dining slide. Not sure why it was doing this but we started noticing a lot of dry rot in other places as if this was something that always happened to this unit 😡 parked the unit at my business that I own and came in to check on it one day after sitting for a week the kitchen faucet was broke off and laying in the sink 😡😡😡. This unit was brand new and we only used it twice. We also noticed the floor molding and trim is coming off all over the unit. The door locks for the garage and out door kitchen never functioned properly and anyone can just walk up and open it with a twist. Also very disappointing is the zebra shades wich were broken when I picked up the unit at the dealer. They ordered me a new set that took over 1 month and when it came it was broken too. I've only had this unit 9 months and will ne trading it in. Show less

I purchased the 2021 45 foot Sabre 5th wheel last year as a live in home. We have put a whopping 75 miles on the tires sinse we bought it. This rv has been a nightmare from the get go. The front door was stiff and wouldnt open or close properly and in the first three months tore itself apart and had to be replaced. EVERY single water line connection on this rv leaks. And yes i have an inline pressure regulator to limit the pressure so no its just shitty workmanship. The awning stopped working . the heater stopped working. The a/c works intermittently. The usb ports light up 24/7 but wont power anything. Trying to get any repairs done on it is like pulling teeth a constant battle with the dealer to honor the warrantee. I am EXTREMELY DISSATISFIED AND WILL NEVER EVER BUY FOREST RIVER PRODUCTS AGAIN!!! Show less

I have a 2021 and received absolutely no assistance from Forest River. The water heater went out and flooded the pantry area. It took months for the approval of warranty work and I spent about 11 months with no hot water. I don’t have a truck because I really couldn’t believe this could happen within months on a $72000 purchase. I called forest river for options about assistance for a tow and they basically said no and that Covid was to blame for everything. I guess covid took out the water heater and ruined the wood on the pantry from the flooding. Never again. Show less

Bought our unit from Paul Sherry in Piqua Ohio in November 2020, in December 2020 found out that they sold to camping world(which is a joke) Since we’ve owned our unit, we’ve had our hot water tank leak 3 times, having to fix it on our own. The cable was severely damaged in the living area being sealed off, we would’ve never known how to fix it had we not had spectrum cable come to install cable/wifi, it took nearly 4 hours to fix it!! Almost every fitting that water comes through needs to be tightened as it begins to leak after so long of use. Show less

Purchased June 22,2020...Delivered July 3 2020...nothing but issues since delivery..every faucet has leaked, awning short, fiberglass is seperating in the entire outside backend, rubber roof is bubbling up, water and mold under every slideout, main shower leaks, front black tank leaks when 2/3 full, when husbank walks (214 lbs) in living room the whole fifth wheel moves (not enough supports on floor), back bedroom and outside kitchen flooded on first use of back bathtub (water came from outside kitchen into the bedroom area), water heater leak,...many more minor issues to list....the dealership (Camping World) and Forest River are worthless in fixing or approving warranty issues..has been in the shop 10 days so far and 2 techs did on site work and just submitted warranty approval to Forest River for the flooding and other issues....STAY CLEAR of these guys Show less
