Thank you Tiffin RV
Bought a new Allegro QBA35 last fall. Had difficulties with it and spent time in Red Bay and La Mesa in Goodyear AZ to get things fixed ......too bad all motorhomes have poor quality control while be...

I've been following a bunch of Tiffin threads for the past couple of years in the course of researching our purchase. Most of the stories I have read about people going to Red Bay are from three categories:
1.) Those with expired warranties with problems that crop up and Tiffin say they will fix it. Keep in mind, these coaches are out of warranty. How many manufacturers would fix a storage bay on a 6-year old coach? Or, how about radius cracks on 5-year old+ coaches?
2.) Owners who buy far away from home for price or are full timers and go to Red Bay for everything. (Once I retire, if still Tiffin owner, this will be my choice if Tiffin still offers this service.)
3.) Sometimes, a warranty issue arises that the local dealer can't fix. (Who hasn't run into inadequate RV dealers?) Tiffin will say bring it to us, we'll fix it. I have seen stories where Tiffin finds other service providers to do the job too.
Factory service/repair is a great option to have. One of the things I checked while narrowing down our options was if factory service/repair was available. I thought it would be a good option to have.
By the way, I'm still not sure if we made the right choice (the grass is always greener). We have had a few small items and one major headache. All were fixed by the selling dealer except for a couple that I chose to do myself. The proof will be in the long run, I guess?
