Have a quick question for the full timers. If something happens to your rig; ie blow a tire and take out the skirting, or whatever. How long do are you expected to wait for repairs? Do you have the parts ordered and still live in the rig (provided its still safe to do so), then when the parts come in take it down and have it repaired? We're not full timing yet, but we have been waiting over a month for the parts to come in on a rig that is still in production. My wife is really nervous now in case this happens to us when we do hit the road full time. Thanks!
RV Mobile Repair.I full time. I have all my repairs AND maintenance done right at a CG site. I use RV mobile Repair. The CG manager will usually have a list of those that they use and recommend.
7 years on the road and from small to big repairs it has NEVER taken more than one day to get parts. They call it in and they pick it up or it is shipped to them the next day and then come out and do the repair. Actually these RV mobile guys have 99% of any part you might need right on their trucks. Since 99% of all parts of an RV are universal.
You don't have to be at a CG for them to come out. You can be right at your house. Call a local CG near you and ask who they use for RV Mobile Repair and get the phone number. Or just go to that local CG and make a nice weekend of it. That sure would be a change for repairs eh? Sit back in a lawn chair with a cold one and watch your RV being repaired.:C
Better qualified service tech AND at half the price AND you don't have to drive anywhere and leave your RV for weeks on end.
There is NO part that can't be shipped or picked up the next day. That's dealership bs. :C
