Looking for Reveiws of Newer Canyon Trail and Sedona

[BobbiC]

You know, I wish there was a place on the web where people could post their review on their RV and others could access those reviews. Otherwise, you have to buy these reports, and they're not cheap. So that leaves the researching buyer practically no other choice but to find RV forums and do searches, or ask. So, I'm here to ask if anyone owns one of these RVs and your feedback.

I did read down through this forum and spotted a few helpful posts, but it's usually the problems that get posted.

I greatly appreciate your help. :)

Hi JimandTerri - I had no idea I had a response to my question, so I apologize for the serious delay. We are actually looking at toy haulers right now, and the GS Endura Max Sport is on our list. A CT or Sedona is still a possibility, however, so please feel free to give a review of what you have. :D

We purchased a fifth wheel canyon trail Aztec edition. It was a demo model and was used at many shows. It had cosmetic problems from the shows. They are replacing everything with new that we had listed. It is a great trailer. Tows nicely. Only problem now is we have to be careful where we make reservations as we might not fit. We was glade we had a diesel to tow it as the unit weighs 12500 empty.
Enjoy

I own a 2012 Canyon Trail, these are some of the problems I've had with this RV: Door lock wouldn’t work, had to grind out bigger hole in door jamb. Later, had to replace the keyboard for the electronic door lock.
Wipes on slides do not go out when slide is opened. Have to push them with stick to go out.
Gulfstream couldn’t tell me how to sanitize the potable water tank.
Numerous trim pieces had to be re-secured inside trailer.
Can’t adjust air flow to burner on stove, best answer, let it burn with yellow flame.
Ceiling fan/vent had water leaks. Trailer running lights on back had water leaks. One side window had a water leak. I had to caulk all of these places since these problems showed while we were out of town.
Found staples above refrigerator slide were scraping the roof on the slide, digging a groove in the roof material. Had to have them cut or removed, dealer did the work.
Electric heating on hot water didn’t work, needed a thermostat.
Shower had numerous leaks around base.
Water leaks into basement from shower.
Laminate siding on bathroom door is pulling away from door frame.
Bolt on crossbar of mechanism that puts trailer feet up and down sheared off.
Venetian blind by kitchen sink had to be replaced.
Second slide scrapes across the linoleum.
Pin holding side support to steps fell out; shortly thereafter another pin fell out.
Carpet edge was tearing away from carpet.
The material covering the lounge chairs is cracking.
None of the waste tank indicators works correctly.
Dealer had to replace black tank, a 2 inch screw from the flooring was screwed into the tank.
Dealer’s repairman found shop towels in black tank after draining it.
Water safety electric outlet had to be replaced, lost one electric circuit.
Both sink faucets had to be replaced.
Awning and awning motor had to be replaced.
Currently replacing a slide wipe that is tearing.
Currently trying to get the factory to fix a manufacturing defect: Found out nose insulation was not installed all the way to the roof. Bedroom gets hot when sun shines on it and have had to use a lot of heat to keep the bedroom warm when it’s cold outside. This has reduced advertised R-14 insulation to about R-1.
As of this date all Gulfstream has done is tell me I'm out of warranty and they won't fix this manufacturing defect. I suggest you buy some other product.
