This is not a motorcoach. It is a travel trailer and I am concerned about pumps, electric motors, appliances, AC, refrigerator, awning, inverter, etc.

Most appliances have 2 year warranties... The trailer should be 1 year from the dealer. Unless makes like jayco that have a 2 year.

I did all my own RV repairs the first year as I didnt want the dealer to hack job it up...

Bearings all loose when checked from trip back from florida.
Trap not hooked up, brand new, flooded bathroom
Tank monitor panel light for water heater faulty
Piece of wood and garbage found in underbelly. had to cut it out
Main 12v wire to batteries from converter, pinched on frame and had intermittent short while driving...

Furnace still goes off on overheat thermister because of oversized unit. 30k btu in a little 26ft trailer.20k would be plenty big..

Screw heads on roof, about 12 of them, not fully caulked...

Etc etc.

It is not new (2017), hence why I am looking at aftermarket warranty. Also I am thinking 2 years basic for $500 bucks from Good Sam. Also, please this is NOT a debate on IF I need or SHOULD I get a warranty.

The question is WHO offers competitive reliable warranty packages?

stop worrying,if it breaks call a mobil tech ,smarter, cheaper, faster, and they come to you, and most times you get to watch and learn.

If this is a new unit everything you mentioned is already covered by a mfg warrenty. Like I have already said, put the two grand or however much there trying to soak you for it into a special savings account.

Should you opt to buy one...the biggest reason by far that Extended Warranty companies use to decline a claim, is lack of oil changes by approved shops. ie: not you doing one. the quickie lube places are acceptable as are dealer shops. You can do them all you like if you prefer that, but you need to have it done by a shop, then scoot home and re-do it.

x2.. Your forced to take the rv several times a year to have normal maintenance done, like roof and window caulk, bearing grease, etc etc.. Which is an out of pocket expense. Some offer 10% off of these services, but big deal.
