JAYCO Toy Hauler reviews

Would NEVER!!!!!!!!! purchase another jayco product. I just bought a 160k jayco toy hauler. The quality of the products installed are horrible. Thr unit was damaged when delivered to me. No help from jayco. The fit and finish of doors,cabinets, lights, all hardware are cheap Chinese made junk. The linoleum floor has a huge bubble in it as wide as the unit. The 3 season door in the garage is very flimsy and doesn't close as it should. Both toilets in the unit are not solid. The flooring under the toilets is extremely thin. AGAIN, no help from jayco. There's too many things to list that are substandard or poor quality. The workmanship of things installed is horrible. DO NOT BUY anything made by thor/ jayco. Show less

All I have to say is don't buy a jayco. I left a previous review with a lot of issues, well I found more problems, I called costumer service, they said someone would contact me within 48 hours, they did not, it is like they do not care , the quality of the trailer sucks. Costumer service sucks. So save yourself a lot of head ache, DO NOT BUY A JAYCO SEIZMIC. Show less

I bought the trailer feb 2025 at rv show , it took 20weeks to get it,after multiple mix ups,still did not come with the solor system, I had to get corporate involved to get panel installed, I got tired of arguing with the dealer and installed the inverter myself,after I got it home. So DO NOT BUY FROM CAMPING WORLD IN DRAPER UTAH. Also since I got it home, I have found water leaks, cabinet doors falling off, the fuel station wired wrong and inoperable, and fuel leaks, the bathroom pocket door misaligned, the electric water heater not working, the shower drain won't drain, slide seals torn and ripped, the gray tank main valve not sealing properly and leaking. What make me the most upset is that the factory shipped this out of there door ,and the dealer did a pdi and pencil whiped the check list that all systems worked, THEY LIED PERIOD. And no help from customer service, I have fixed everything myself, Anyway there is more but the point is I will not recommend jayco to anyone after the headache and crap I have been through. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER JAYCO, AND WARN OTHERS NOT TO ALSO. Show less

Buyer beware! Condensation within the walls without any visible signs . My Octane has never shown any condensation issues, not in the cabinets or living areas. I’ve always kept the unit well vented when in storage and under a RV carport. Your RV may be rotting away and you don’t even know it! My Octane is an excellent example of poor craftsmanship and no pride in one’s work! It took just seven year for the front eight feet to rot away from the inside out. I would have not known except that my Octane split open driving down the highway. The entire passenger side front corner opened up nearly the entire length while we were heading to a rally. At highway speeds it took just seconds to start peeling back and away. After opening up the walls I discovered massive gaps with no insulation and the AC duct-work taps so poorly cut that half the air was being pumped into the roof and walls! The three roof vents were open behind the trim pieces. So every time we ran the AC we were pumping moisture into the walls and roof. This was so bad that the aluminum floor framing has rotted away, yes aluminum 1 1/2 square tubing totally dissolved in seven years! There was no vapor barrier between the outer aluminum siding and the inside walls. This creates continuous condensation every time there is a temperature variation. Forget about the warranty or your RV insurance, you are on your own for the repairs on this type of damage. Dealer estimate for the repairs? Just shy of $16,000 for repairs! Like I would let any dealer repair it back to factory specs!! I’ve repaired the unit myself for less than 3K. I used closed cell insulation, treated lumber, vapor barriers, Kreg joints, exterior rated glues and highly elastic polymer caulk and sealants. Built the way you would expect to find in one of these expensive toys. So look before you buy and definitely check if you own. Not all RV Condensation can be seen! Show less

Bought a 2024 Jayco Seismic 395 in October of 2023. It has been in the shop 4 months with hydraulic issues. The dealership it was purchased is less than helpful in a replacement effort. The hydraulic leveling system has failed and it has been a nitemare trying to get it fixed. The dealership where it is at is convinced it is a pressure switch and Lippert keeps putting them through un successful steps, that don't work…. Anyone have any thoughts? Show less

I have owned my trailer since 2021. We have had to replace the tongue jack, propane regulator, rear cargo door screen and finally the Jaycommander. The cargo door screen most likely was never operational but discovered in March 2022. After working through 2 dealers we have finally had it fixed in February 2023, nearly a year. This is a combination of bad dealers and inventory problems at Jayco. The Jaycommander failed after the last firmware updated. After the update the awning would not retract. We have now been waiting over 5 weeks for the warranty support and have been told it would be probably another 4 weeks for a part to arrive and another week for the repair. When we get the trailer back, I will be selling the trailer. We have spent half the time we have owned the trailer trying to get it fixed. If this is standard operating procedures and times for repairs, I do not want to be part of the RVing world. It has cost me far too much time, money and frustration. Show less

Stay far away from this camper. Three weeks after purchase I found the tail light assembly hanging by the wires. The screws rusted through. AC failed. Pitiful attempt to repair. Finally replaced entire unit. The new one is not working right. The water heater broke the second time used. Caulking around sink and shower could have been done better by a monkey. Rollers on shower door fell off or broke. Kitchen faucet leaks. All workmanship is terrible. Every day I find something that angers me. Pre-wired for back up camera. I spent two hours finding, then retrieving this wire from inside the ceiling. This is my third camper. First and last Jayco. I wish I had financed this heap. I would drive it to Jayco headquarters and simply dump it at their front door. The entire RV industry is shameful. Jayco leads the way. Do not buy a Jayco Show less

Wow!!! There is too much to say other than I have lost 7 months of camping in result of this LEMON COVID Camper. You can name any part of a camper and it has failed on the new piece of crap! Don't buy a 2021 Jayco anything! Show less

Rear tail light/ turn signal assemblies fell off after three weeks because of rusted screws. 3 WEEKS! First test of AC, optional 15k but. Out side temp 79 at630 pm. Inside temp 95. Opened windows, used fan to drop temp to 90. Closed unit. Shades drawn. Awning deployed to help shade side. AC on, set 65. Air felt cool, not cold. Returned 2 hours later ready to walk in and shiver. The only shiver I felt was due to anger. Inside temp 82, sun nearly set. I'm glad I got the 15k but and not the standard 13.5k but. Door Frame to bathroom is falling off. Easy fix, but, why should I be fixing anything in a brand new unit that has not even been used yet. I thought I was stepping up a little from Forest River junk. Not even a little. Well, it came with Goodyear tires. I have not even begun to raise he'll, but, I promise it is coming. Does anything good one out of Elkhart, Indiana? I have yet to see it. If you cannot afford an Airstream or similarly overpriced camper that reaches the acceptable level.......and I have heard bad things about the insanely priced units also.......just buy a tent. These manufacturers need to be taught a lesson. If I can get this brand new Junko road worthy, first stop will be Elkhart. I want some answers from the greedy owners before I dump this shitpile of tin on their lawn. Screw you Jayco. I'm sorry. You don't understand that word. I forgot the missing nuts on the tongue jack.
