I bought a 2000 Fleetwood double wide brand new off the lot had nothing but problems problems! from first day water was coming end where home join together siding not on right back door won't stay lock,light fixtures falling down, Windows leaking, mold everywhere,shingles off roof no installation in walls.They came out a few times never fix problems started treating me like I was the problem. I was a single mom hate living in this shell have spent over $100.000 dollars in this shack I pray everyday God would someway make it better Fleetwood you're WRONG!🙏🙏🙏

We purchased a 3bd/2ba Fleetwood from Clayton homes in 2012 from Twin falls ID, I will never purchase another trailer ever again. The walls are so thin, no insulation between the walls. Walls are uneven as is the floor. Cabinets are not even real wood as they claimed and are falling apart literally. Bottom of our front door was constantly leaking when it would rain so my husband replaced the bottom of the door and all there was, was a piece of wood and the wood was ducked taped, I'm assuming because it broke so they taped it together. Once when it rained so much the water was leaking in from the bathroom floor. Once again I will never purchase anything from Fleetwood again. We paid so much for something that's not even worth the price. Very disappointed!

My husband and I bought a Fleetwood in 2007 and contacted the Nowell's Housing for over a year with complaints about the molding, shingles, etc. and never got any of it fixed. The front of the house was supposed to be siding but it was that hardy board. Our home has had several water leaks because there was no backing put behind the front of the house and there was no plywood put behind the hardy board. I must say that for the money we paid, I have never been so disappointed.

roof gone leaking, around vent pipes and other places.one room you can see the sky.disable, no money to fix.Dont know what to do.Help some one grbb191@aol.com

I Bought a fleetwood home and I am pissed I have had to fix all the draws and I have to replase the skirting that is just falling apart Be fore the water was even hooked up i had to replace pipes because they left water in the lines and they froze and broke. Nothing is straight or plum The interer doors have 2inches of gap ant the bottom. I was told that was to allow for settling. I bought this home because i could live in constructing anymore and i feel that that is just what os happening

I purchased my Harbor Springs Elite Fleetwood home in 2007 and have had noting but trouble from it and the service Fleetwood provided. Leaks, mold, electrical problems, cracked dry wall, swelling floors, etc... After my home was installed I noticed the floor in the utility room was buckling so, I called it in and they sent a team out and basically I just learned that the team falseified document stating that they replaced the floor boards etc. I sent Fleetwood a records request and they sent me all of my service records and I was amazed at the things that were said to be down and the things that were not done.

I now have 6 placeing in my home that have swelled to a point that they are a trip hazzard. I called Fleetwood and was told that there is nothing that could be done because of the bankruptcy Fleetwood filed.

We filed a claim with our insurance company today and we were informed that we do not have a claim and we are on our on on this matter. The repairs are going to run between $8000.00 - $10, 000.00 I am sick, I purched the home with good faith and now have a money pit. This was supposed to be our retirement home and now it is just a nightmare

The story that follows is what my ex-wife wrote. In a new
development, I spoke with a rep from Fleetwood 3 days ago, and she informed me
that since Fleetwood had sold out and was now owned by Capco, Capco hadn't
bought into any of Fleetwoods warranties, they had no responsibility to fix my
house. I contacted a local lawyer who informed me today that there was
essentially nothing I could do due to the fact that Fleetwood is now in
bankruptcy. Thanks Fleetwood..you couldn't pay me to take a doghouse you people
threw together!

In 2006 my husband and I purchased a 2005 model Fleetwood doublewide mobile
home. It had never been lived in and was new from the lot. We had been in the
house a little over a year and noticed the walls were getting mushy. We could
literally leave fingerprints in our walls. We cut a small hole in the wall and
noticed there was green, white ans a small amount of black mold growing in the
walls in several places, in several rooms. Also, we noticed the floor was
creaking, mold was growing on our doorframes, inside and out, and there was
water gathering in our breaker box. It was hanging over the breakers and there
were noticeable rust spots. this scared me.

We called Fleetwood and after several trips out to the house to inspect it, they
sent a team out 5 months later. We were out of our house for a little over a
week while they replaced the walls and wrapped the outside of the house. They
even sent someone out with the crew to make sure it was done right. HA! When
they left, there were almost as many new problems as there were old one. They
broke our bathtub, ripped out the carpet in our bedroom instead of our bedroom
closet because they read the plan wrong (No they never put the new linoleum down
in the closet, either, so we had 2 different colors!).

Anyway, after several calls to Fleetwood, we decided these we problems we could
live with just to keep from calling them again. So, they replaced everything in
November of 2007. Then, in June of 2008, we noticed the mushy walls again. So we
went thorugh the whole process AGAIN, and was out of our house for 8 days this
time. After notifying them in June of 2008, they did not make it out to the
house until January of 2009 4 months ago.They wrapped the inside this time, as
well, putting plastic in between the drywall and the middle wall, thinking that
would stop the moisture from getting in the walls again. Well, that did not
work, either.

It has been 4 months since they have been out and our walls are mushy again. My
husband is so infuriated he is ready to walk away from the house and ruin his
credit. I am simply tired of packing. You see, we moved in July 2006, then had
to pack everything again when they came to work on the house the first time.
Then unpack it when they left, then pack again this last time, and unpack when
they left again. I am so sick of packing. I don't have time to do it again. So,
if we have to pack again, we are just going to take it out of the house for
good. I think that they just put the house together very poorly and no amount of
coming out to fix the after effects will solve the underlying problem, which
they have still not figured out.

Damage Resulting = Physical: water hanging over my breaker box, terribly soggy
walls, rust, mold, mildew, uneven floors, to name a few.

Economic: Time off work to pack, extra money spent on food when we had to stay
in motels while they worked on our house, extra money for gas since said hotels
were further away from work and school than the house, most likely the electric
bill is higher than it should be due to the bad construction of the home.
