Provided you are a little handy with tools, you will likely not need a dealer to provide you with warranty repairs. Most warranty problems are minor and easily repaired yourself. Additionally, all the components of the trailer have their own warranties provided by their respective manufacturers. I've never had problems getting parts supplied by them.
In the event you have a major structural problem while under warranty, it's usually best to drag the unit back to the manufacturer anyway as few dealers are able to handle any major repair issues. Some can but most can't. Of course, your ability to return the unit to the factory will be determined by where the factory is and what your schedule might be.
A dealer telling me they won't repair a unit purchased elsewhere would be a good way to guarantee that I would buy elsewhere.
