We have a 2010 Yellowstone Super-C. We have had to have both slide floors repaired.
The beginning of last year the one on the front driver's side was dragging on the stationary floor. This slide holds the jackknife sofa and stove. I tried to use the manufacturer warranty, but the dealer I bought it from with 3,000 miles on it about a year after it was shipped to him, had rented it. That voided the manufacturer warranty. He had rented it to electrical workers that came from around the country to repair downed wires after Super Storm Sandy. I then tried the extended warranty. They would only cover the mechanism so I brought it to the shop so they could remove the slide from the motorhome and see what the problem was. (As a note, if the slide was not inspected within two years the extended warranty company would not cover repairs. I had it inspected the year before.) After the inspections it was determined that a Gulf Stream bracket had a design defective and had to be replaced. With no warranty or insurance coverage, $4000 out of my pocket.)
At the end of last year I noticed the rear passenger slide with the bunkbeds and master bedroom furniture was moving roughly and with a lot of noise. The “moisture barrier” under the floor on the outside that looked like a black garbage bag had been ripped by the rollers that support the slide. As a result the plywood had rotted through. Again, manufacturer design flaw, this time $9000 out of pocket. But now there are metal runners that ride on the rollers.
