Problems locating repair shops for Motorhomes.

Most Ford dealers won't even work on Class C's - I take my rig to Ford Truck Dealer.

you'll have better luck at ford commercial chassis service centers. clicky

If you aren't needing warranty work, there are any number of independent shops that work on trucks and motorhomes; I have yet to have any real difficulty finding one when I've needed it. Often they don't advertise all that heavily or have facilities that are immediately obvious from the main roads, but can be found by asking around. People with box trucks and step vans and shuttle busses need to get them repaired from time to time, after all, and it's not much different working on them as on a motorhome.

For warranty work it's maybe harder since you need a factory authorized place.

Check with some heavy truck repair shops they might handle working on the Ford F53.

Freightliner truck repair shop here in Las Vegas does work on the F53 chassis and can handle warrenty service as well since they also sell the commercial Ford trucks.

But there rates are $130 a hour so I do as much of my own repairs as I can.

Ford has a dedicated 800 number that can direct you to a facility that can handle your motor home

Ford Motorhome Chassis owners can receive 24/7 service assistance by dialing 1-800-444-3311 (see the rear cover of this brochure for details).

I've had to take my home to private dealers whom don't accept warranty's.
