I purchased a 2017 Starcraft Satellite 18DS at the end of 2017. We have used it maybe four or five times since we bought it.

On our first trip out, the front stabilizers bent. We also found that there were problems with the wiring, but the dealer fixed that. In the past two years, since COVID, we have not had it out but have checked it from time to time and changed out damp rid, etc. We checked it last weekend and noticed the floor appears to be rotted right at entry.

Checked all around inside and saw no obvious signs of water coming in on the inside walls. Checked under the RV and saw that there is a waterproof lining under the RV, which appeared to be hanging down. My husband cut into the lining and water rushed out. Water has somehow been getting under that lining under the floor and getting trapped there..

It appears that it has been seeping into the side slide bench as well. We have made an appointment with our dealer for an inspection.

If you look to buy an RV, think about your options carefully before buying a Starcraft Satellite. The materials are all cheap and now we have discovered what appears to us to be a HUGE design flaw, resulting in rotting of our floor.

It has happened to our 2019 Starcraft as well. Last year the floor rotted under the shower area.

Had it repaired -$1,000.

We got it out yesterday to get it ready for use and the floor is now soft at entry door. What next?
