2022 Thor Motor Coach Windsport Other or unknown Problems

“The propane heater on our motorhome has been cycling on the high limit switch since new. This is due to insufficient airflow across the heat exchanger. It is also the source of intermittent carbon monoxide alarms being activated. We have had this unsuccessfully repaired under warranty. The cycling continues. If other units of this model series were built the same way, I suspect this is a problem common to all. This also creates a fire risk should the high limit switch be operated enough times for it to fail. …”

“I’m concerned about the bbq propane compartment getting hairline cracks and the brass shut off valve that’s made of brass and dropping down to the road and getting road rash till it grinds through the shut off valve. I just read on a Thor Facebook forum that this happened to a 2016 Thor Windsport 34P. I have the pictures he posted. I asked AI Gemini, apparently this is a known and well documented safety issue. I can forward the link to the AI report. Will link here if this works. The pictures are mine (intact) and the other two are his 2016 motorhome. …”

“Main propane heater in my Thor Windsport 29M motorhome was coming on and goings on off before the desired temperature was reached. I realized it was cycling on the high limit switch, which is.generally caused by insufficient air flow over the heat exchanger. Took it in for warranty service which identified the cause as a kinked heater hose, which had to have been done at the factory during installation. Had the high limit switch failed, the motorhome would have been lost to a fire. Due to the high heat caused by the kinked duct, the blower wheel had partially melted.”
