Take it back to the dealer, and tell them to sort it out,,,irrespective if it Brit or not,,( Lenny is a bit of a snob), they have to do it .👍👍👍

I’m sure there are buckets loads of overseas manufactured vans that are a pile of poo, and people are very unhappy with them, I thought the whole idea of MF was to help and encourage people to make the right choices,, I personally couldn’t care less what anyone drives or owns,but if I can help with my limited knowledge, I will,,👍

We've got a Swift and pleased with it. It's had its problems, nothing major...... unless I've caused it!!! Having looked at quality of foreign vans at NEC last week, we were pleased we've bought a Swift. Go back to dealer and give then grief. Good luck

We are on our fifth Swift. Only had problems with one. That was a ten year old one when we returned to motorhoming fifteen years ago.

With others we only had the odd snag during warranty.

You only have to read posts on the Forum to realise that as British build quality has gone up some European build quality has gone down.

There are regular complaints on the Forum regarding problems with Hymer, (never our choice), Adria, (a marque we liked), etc.

Our present Swift is a keeper as it is, (finally), our perfect layout and in 14,000 miles has only suffered from a defective MCB on the toilet flush, not a Swift but a Thetford item.
