Electric Leveling System

My XLR was totaled. Looking at the 4212 Seismic. I'm looking for any reviews on the electric leveling system. I have read bad things. Just looking to see if they have fixed all the bugs the previous models had?

Just picked up my 4212 from Steves Rv in Lacombe, La. last week. It has Gen 3. Have not had any problems. I get the feeling its best to use blocks under jacks.

I have 4212 (2015) with Gen 2 Ground Control, we have had numerous problems some taking 7 weeks to resolve. Since all the repairs it has worked a lot better. I still believe that the electric system is way to light for this heavy of a unit. Hydraulic would be the best choice but Jayco won't listen.
You can look at the threads here for all issues.

I ordered ours and requested a 7500 watt Onan and they said no way. Worth a try

I have the 4212 with Gen 3, and though we've only used it several times, (leveling), it did a perfect job.

Jim: I hope for your sake it never gives you an issue. Frankly Lippert Electric leveling should be a Class Action Lawsuit!
