No secret that RV build quality is iffy on a good day. I thought I would start a thread for things you find poking around your rig that were so egregious, you took a picture of them. A 'post of shame' we'll call it.
I'll start.

This is the wire passthrough from the inside of the trailer to the awning. Two circuits, one for the awning, one for the lights. Sealed connection for the LED lights, regular non-sealed crimp caps for the awning.
Jagged hole, no wire protection, and absolutely no protection from water going in the trailer. I shoved a piece of split loom in the hole and will deal with the water issue on another day since it appears that for the time being none has gotten in there. Still not happy with an open hole like this. Apparently they've never heard of a hole saw. I would have been satisfied if they'd just jammed the hole full of silicone or the like, but nay.
I'll start.
