We bought an ABI Windermere 2020 and have just had it 11 months. Throughout those 11 months, we have had issues with rust appearing on the door handles, fireplace, kitchen tap and hob. We keep the place well ventilated and heated when it's cold and don't use any products which may cause this (we use CIF Stainless Steel cleaner on cooker and only dry cloths on fireplace. As for the kitchen tap rusting, water obviously gets on it. Has anyone got the same issue? I am starting to wonder if there is another less obvious issue with the caravan or if it is just poor quality fittings. We have contacted ABI but they are being less than helpful with this. Thanks in advance for any help or feedback on similar issues.

Hi sorry to hear of your problems, yours is a static caravan and this forum are tourers and motorhomes. You really need to take it up with the seller and if necessary look up on Citizens Advice fir your rights under CRA 2015?

The ABI Windemere is a static van and this site is mainly for the touring caravan people so any information will be very hard to get , unfortunately.

You would be better to try the ABI owners forum, if there is one, or take your concerns up with the dealer / seller of your van or ABI directly, but be very aware that the makers are very , very slow to respond .
As a last resort you may have to go to a solicitor.
