As so many here are...disappointed with GSRA...

I switched from AAA to Good Sam a year ago hoping RV service would be better than AAA if needed.
Well, no RV problems, but yesterday my daughter had a blowout on the way home. She was 1/4 mile from a major east/west US highway and traveling northbound on another. She was 10 miles south of our area that has a population of over 300,000 people. Guess what, the unfriendly representative told her she couldn't find anyone to come out. Great service, thanks Good Sam. Ironically I'm up for renewal. Would I give these folks another penny.....no stinkin' way. Buyers beware!!!

    Please respond to the GS rep. It is the only way things will change for us. GSRA outside service providers not their own in house people. If the cannot find someone to come at certain times it COULD BE that GSRA does not want to pay the providers enough money.

    If that is the case then the more GSRA gets push back from customers the more likely they are to change. If you go away you are just another guy not renewing, if you make them work before you leave you just may impart some knowledge to them that makes it better for the rest of us.


    I would also urge the OP to definitely followup with the offer of assistance, While what is done cannot be undone at least you might get a partial refund.
  • We have both GS and AAA. On the NJ Turnpike I was having issues and we only had AAA. He wouldn't take the trailer with the tv. I limped off the highway under my own power and limped home. I certainly hope that GS will be better. The only other alternative is to call police and ask what tow service they use and pay the bill. GS is linked to CW and lately CW has had lots of issues when ordering anything online. I wonder if they are having money issues....

  • somebody must be skimming off the top,only reason this outfit is still around. Quite unbelivable no body avail, but when they want to pay on the cheap (& slow pay) thats all they get. Talk to lot of RS co ,when GS calls ----click.

    the only way we can fight this is with our pocketbook
