Reimbursed for traveling to manufacturer?

Has anyone ever been reimbursed by their manufacture of coach, for traveling a distance of over 1000 miles to have them repair it, because local service didn't?
  • Did you call the factory and have them recommend a local repair shop?
    If you just drove to the factory, why would you even think they would reimburse you for miles or any thing else?

    Could you name the manufacturer that has no authorize repair centres?

    Are you saying your insurance company will pay for a manufacturers mistakes that are under warranty? What company is that and what type of insurance do you have?


    No saying they will pay for manufacturers mistake but I'm saying my co. will pay for break downs causing me to stay put someway therefore I can claim car rental hotel etc. I find it hard to believe, not saying the OP is a liar, that there are no authorized repair shops within a reasonable distance of break down.

    If the factory is wiling to fix your issue count your blessings. Many do not. Just plan a little vacation in their area. Would be nice to know what RV you have and what the issues are so we all can learn!

  • Have been to manufacturer 6 times with 3 different coaches, and all have refused reimbursement of any sort (to include hotels).
