I think it’s a good thing. Putting pressure on the worst player in the game raises the bar for the rest. It’s naive to think there has been no corner-cutting among molded fiberglass manufacturers.
I would be very curious to know some of the specific safety violations that got the attention of NHTSA and whether they involve towables, motorhomes, or both.
Sadly, neither investigation addresses the dismal build quality that afflicts RV’s in general. These agencies don’t care whether your toilet
leaks or your
fridge works.
Love my
Scamp, and my ownership experience has been mostly uneventful. Its simplicity- read lack of features- is the biggest reason. I would buy another. But that is not to say there is no room for improvement.
