My '14 montana had a defective dometic 9100 awning. Recall #13e-019 dated 4-19-2013. The recall was done by keystone. Now the motor has failed again and the awning will not roll up, making the use or movement of the rv impossible. A rv service person said the motor was bad, I called dometic and asked for help, they refused any help. This is the same issue the recall was supposed to correct. I have ordered a new motor at my expense and will have to pay to have it installed when I receive it. The motor part number has been changed 4 times, the last change was 4-2016. I was told by dometic that…

The latch to the rear emergency window broke. (I discovered this while opening the adjacent window for ventilation). This allows the window to flap open and closed (On its hinge) as you travel down the road. The window is for emergency exit so the latch has not been used and appears to have broken from metal fatigue. Cheap part made with cheap aluminum metal.

Within 3 months of purchasing a new keystone montana 5th wheel the rear fire emergency window latch broke. In order to continue using the 5th wheel the window had to be secured shut with wire ties. This emergency window is one of only three fire exits from the trailer. It is the only fire exit in the rear extra living quarters. It has been over a year with this part on "back order". Now I AM told they no longer produce this part and keystone rv does not seem to want to fix it at all. I have read on the internet that there are hundreds and hundreds of these faulty emergency window latches that…
