New 2020 Jayco Seismic 4113 Buyer beware
My wife and I purchased a 2020 Jayco Seismic 4113 a year-and-a-half ago thinking Jayco was a good reputable brand as we had heard all so many times before let's just say that that has not proven to be the case thus far not once have I been overweight and yet I have gone through three axles and recently busted a hanger bracket do to it being welded on to hot from the manufacturer/ installer and believe it or not that's not even the start of it. It wasn't until 2 months ago when my transfer switch went out. Well troubleshooting and following Shore power under the rig I noticed 2 of my 3 axles we're never hooked up for electric braking! Meanwhile I have traveled from Arizona to West Virginia on my first family road trip before realizing that they were never hooked up from the factory! So for anyone looking into the 2020 or 2021 Jayco triple axles keep in mind they use 3 x 5700 lb axles the only thing that makes them 7000 pound axles is the hubs are upgraded and yet they have fifth wheel hitch rated for 21000 pounds and the dry weight of the unit is 16,756 lbs and can carry approximately 3939 lb of cargo however if that's the case they can someone please tell me why I'm approx 1000 lbs under Max weight and have gone through now 3 axles? Upon research I realize that there are over 184 other individuals going through the same thing with their new units very unfortunate Jayco meanwhile I've been waiting in a parking lot for over a month and a half to get two of my three axles replaced by Dexter who has denied my claim meanwhile it seems Jayco as well as Lippert seem to be taking their time I've tried to speak with them and even offered to pay the difference between a 7,000 lb axle and 8000 lb axle and they refused apparently they want bent axles poor quality and dangerous driving conditions for their consumers I would not recommend Jayco to anyone anymore. Hopefully they will do another axle recall as they have done before accept responsibility and fix the problem the right way before it harms any one else but if they will not do it of their own volition this is where the buck stops so to speak I will not drive myself nor my family around thousands of miles and jeopardize the lives of people I care about and love to save these corporations a few dollars off their bottom line and the inconvenience of having to fix their mistakes so buyer beware you could be very well investing in a mobile deathtrap please do your due diligence before you purchase and be safe
