Is anyone happy with the Jensen JRV215-N?

Does anyone have a Jensen dash unit that works to their satisfaction? Mine hasn't worked in over a year - 5 dealers that Jayco recommended ( in 3 different states ) haven't been able th fix it - now Jayco service will try on April 9th and see if they can fix it - it is my understanding that Jensen doesn't offer a replacement ( Jayco couldn't find one to replace mine with ) Jensen's tech department isn't very helpful

I have been pretty unimpressed, but like a lot of RV electronics, it is is as cheap as they can buy. GPS is out of date, and can't get it updated, DVD player makes my DVD's so hot I have to let them cool off before handling them. That said, it is the best RV unit I have ever owned (only saying the rest have been much much worse). When mine dies, I will replace with something better. Expensive upgrade, but.....it has been two years and hasn't died yet. I really don't use it other than for occassional radio noise and when the wife wants to watch a movie. Phone is my go to GPS (I do run the bluetooth voice through the audio unit) and I am not that into music while driving.

I'll probably Jinx it, but our JRV215N is still kicking. Like JD said, it's far from perfect but it's doing the job. If / when it dies, I'll just replace it with some DoubleDIN head unit that supports a single camera.

Jensen Junk...

1st time out with our 2016 29ME and besides the normal small issues the radio by far was the worst.
1. Subwoofer had no control, even down to 0 it woke the whole campground
2. Radio (beeps) and then goes silent for a few seconds every minute or 2.
3. Radio drains my cab batteries after a few hours of runtime. Even hooked to shore power. Not getting balanced charging??
