I'm a newbie
I have 6 of these Oberholz locks fitted to the 3 garage doors of my Chausson 610 motorhome, which was bought new last year. Within the last 3 months 3 of the 6 locks have broken, including 1 which has never been used.

Has anyone else encountered similar problems with these locks?

Sorry to revive an old thread but our Chausson Flash 03 has four of these fitted. One has failed within a fortnight of us owning the van (albeit second hand). Interestingly the one that failed is a lighter colour than the remaining which suggests to me that it was a replacement already (the remaining three are similarly yellowed to the other white parts of the van).

I’ve found a few places online (now I know what they are called) that sell them but wonder if you got any further in identifying if this was a dodgy batch or have they continued to fail for you?

I haven't had anymore problems , but find that you just have to be more careful with them as they are fragile , if the door has two on it use both of them together to open the door it helps to take the strain off rather just using the one handle .
When you do change it you just replace the existing lock barrel in to the new handle
