After four trips with our TT we finally had a camping trip where we didn't have to take it back to the dealer for some kind of repair.
Is this unusual?

Depends what's been wrong. We've often had to take it to the dealer for a few "tweaks" after trips and outings, though I can't recall doing that 4 times in a row.

I think we had to take ours in for the first trip complaint list. But that was about all.
happy travels!

Depends what the problems were.... I fixed numerous small items myself, i.e. leaking wtaer pipes/drains, loose cabinet doors...
Have a great time camping,

It would not only be unusual it would be totally UNACCEPTABLE to have repeated problems with a new trailer. Hopefully you've got all of the bugs out of yours now that SHOULD never have been there in the first place. For comparison, mine has been back to the dealer once in 2 years for a new water valve on the toilet. Good luck / Skip

Yes it is unusual to not have something to fix after a camping trip. That house is shaking and rattling down the road in a constant earth quake. It will settle down but I always keep my tools handy for the screw that is backing out or pipe that loostened a bit.

Our past few trips have been good. I never say anything about how things went until we are back home and unhooked.
At one time every time we came back something had to be fixed. DH would repair the small things but while it was under warranty I made a list. I'm the same way with my Yukon, got warranty and they will deal with it, they made the $$$$$.

Mostly minor stuff with us but I have found a screw or two in trim or otherwise that has backed out everytime I take a trip of any length.
