Latest Greyhawk complaints
While driving down the road at about 45mph, the driver side upper cabin window located adjacent to the eating table exploded and blew into the cabin. The window shattered and glass blew throughout the cabin area. Whatever caused this, the blast was strong enough to pull the Velcro straps holding the seat cushions blown off and the glass ripped the cushion's vinyl. If someone had been sitting at the table, they would have been extremely cut and hurt and possibly blinded. I had no warning to this situation. At...

first, I thought someone had shot out the window, but I nor the RV repaired found no evidence. Vehicles were passing me and I assume a rock or some other item was picked up and blown into the window. I thought these windows would only shatter, but not blow in. Weather was sunny in the 70's.
After a recent purchase of a new 2026 Jayco Greyhawk 29MV RV, I discovered my 2 cats trying to enter a previously unknown and unfinished opening adjacent to a designated sleeping/play area of my RV in the cab overhead. One of the cats was panicked as he was stuck in the opening. The opening is very difficult to see unless you climb well forward into the sleeping area for closer examination which I did not do before my purchase. The area contains a very long area of sharp, unfinished and in some places splintered...

fiberglass edging that actually goes the entire distance around the window opening. Since this easily accessible area is intended for sleeping/playing, a curious child could attempt reaching into the area to retrieve a toy or a pet could enter it and get cut by the unfinished fiberglass or be unable to exit. Portions of the fiberglass are inward flexible which increases chances of an entry and then unable to exit. The area also has accessible loose insulation which further increases the safety hazard. My concern is that a child or pet getting inside and being unable to exit with getting severe cuts from the sharp fiberglass surface. I reported this to the dealer who then informed Jayco who agreed to pay the dealer a whole "0.5 hours" labor for the dealer to "figure out a fix" for the issue. Apparently this issue is in many different makes/models (per the local dealer) and I feel there should be a proper fix applied to all of the fleet rather than a local patch merely to appease just the one customer that found the issue. As a retired military Safety Manager who authored numerous safety messages for issues for Army aviation, I feel this should be investigated for a possible fleetwide safety recall. Based on my conversation with the local dealer, it seems Jayco does not intend to do any further work on the affected vehicles. See attached pictures.
The contact owns a 2020 Jayco Greyhawk. The contact stated while driving 65 MPH, the window glass detached from the RV. The contact pulled off the roadway and discovered that the emergency escape window had shattered. The contact stated that the window was not impacted by an object. The RV was taken to the dealer to be diagnosed; however, the RV was not yet repaired. The RV was not included in NHTSA Campaign Number: 20V337000 (Visibility). The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 15,000. The VIN was unavailable.
Automatic transfer relay over heated creating a fire hazard. It's location under the bed prevents seeing the fire until it is burning. The switch is available for viewing. The rv carries 50 gallons of gasoline and 50 lbs propane a fire could cause collateral damage. This specific problem has not been inspected by a dealer or others. There was no danger warning. This is not an isolated incident on rv group websites there are many reports of this happening. No one to my knowledge has determined the cause of the...

malfunction that causes the fire risk they seem to just replace it with another relay. The way I found out about the malfunction was when there was no shore power to the unit, i checked circuit breakers all were good so I disconnected the shore power and tried the generator. Luckily that also failed to power up the rv. After researching the issue on the internet I checked the transfer relay and saw the burnt wires and relay. I felt very luck there was not a fire. I feel very stupid for starting the generator with relay in this condition.
In January 2021, while traveling at approximately 65 miles per hour on a Chicago area tollroad, my motor home suddenly began violently bouncing up and down in the rear. I immediately began to slow and move to the shoulder, at which time I observed the outside left dual wheel separate from the vehicle and roll into the dividing median wall. I managed to get to the shoulder on the remaining wheel, which was also damaged beyond repair. After towing and repair, the total cost was approximately $3200. The technician...

was unable to determine why the wheel had suddenly broken loose. In August 2021, while traveling at approximately 60 miles per hour on an Illinois Interstate highway, I felt the right rear drop as though a tire had suddenly lost air. I immediately moved to the shoulder and, before I could come to a complete stop, observed the outside right dual wheel separate from the vehicle and stop on the shoulder. Again, the remaining wheel was damaged beyond repair. After towing and repair, the total cost was approximately $2100. Again, the technician (at a different repair facility) was unable to determine why the wheel had suddenly come loose but did mention the fact that he believed the wrong type lug nuts may have been used. These were the same lug nuts that had been on the vehicle since purchase. I have always been diligent in maintaining proper air pressure in my tires, consistently inspected them for wear and damage, and made every attempt to ensure they would not be a problem. After the first occurrence on the left side, I had the right side removed and inspected by the repair facility in Chicago and again by my local tire shop when I arrived home. Since the first occurrence, every time I stop for gas I perform a visual inspection of all tires and manually check all lug nuts to ensure they are not loose. I am curious if this has been reported previously or why this may keep happening. It is both quite frightening and dangerous.
Service advancement warning came on the main gauge display screen while I was driving 62 mph with cruise control set. Vehicle is a 2021 jayco greyhawk 31f class c motorhome on ford e450 chassis with 7.3L gas v-8 and 6-speed automatic transmission. Cruise control stopped working and would not come back on. Hill start assist disabled message came on after I hit "ok" for the service advancement warning. Vehicle became very difficult to control with moderate crosswind. It would sway side to side and moved all over in...

the lane as I steered and countersteered. Vehicle power also seemed to decrease as it would only go about 52 mph in 5th gear and would downshift to 4th in order to go from 45 up to about 55. It was terrifying to go that fast when a gust of wind hit. We pulled into a truck stop, turned off motor and let it sit a couple minutes. It restarted easily but even stationary in park and in drive (stopped) the service advancement warning came back on and the cruise control would not power on. Shut motor off and disconnected negative battery cable for about 20 minutes, hooked battery up and vehicle started with no warning lights. Drove another 20ish miles with no issues, then turned on cruise control and set it at 55. After 2 minutes the c/c shut off again, service activator warning came on, vehicle hard to control with crosswind and decreased engine power. Pulled to shoulder, tried to restart and same issue as at truck stop. Disconnected battery again 20 minutes, hooked back up and drove with no issues for 6 hrs (and 1 fuel stop) with c/c remaining off. Next day issue repeated itself: c/c turned off after about 2 minutes, service advancement light etc. Disconnect battery 20 min, restart and drove without turning on c/c for 7 hrs (w/ 2 stops) no issues. Full power and advancement electronic stability control work fine when service advancement warning is not on.*Dt*jb*dt*dt*dt*jb*jb*jb*dt
