Mobile RV Technicians/Mechanics
Hello everyone. I would like to get your thoughts on mobile RV technicians. Good? Bad? From what I have seen, dealers are somewhat of a last choice on repairs. They all seem to have bad reviews. They ...

I've had both good and bad. It really is a game of chance sometimes. Even when they are recommended.
Two that I have used in my travels were competent and professional (maintenance work and a minor repair).
One that I used gave me three months of excuses why he hadn't done the work (but kept saying he was working on it with the mfg) and ended up doing nothing.
I currently am dealing with one who has also been giving the same excuses for 4 plus months. So nearly 8 months now my fridge is still not fixed, along with a couple other items (awning, stabilizers).
It is warranty work, and I have learned many do not want to do warranty work, or, as I recently learned, don't have the resources to do it.
By resources I mean that the mobile rv tech has to pay for parts up front, and then be reimbursed. I am supposed to be getting all new replacements, but the up front cost for a fridge, awning, and stabilizers seems to be prohibitive for a small operation.
So now I know to ask in advance, in more detail, just what a mobile tech is capable of doing, before inviting them to do any work.
