customer service

I was just wondering if anyone out there might have a good contact number to forest river customer service.
I bought a 2014 Columbus 375RL have had issue with bath slide out since I purchased even the dealer cant seem to get any respect from people at warranty and service at palomino/forest river thanks
  • Forest River INC
    Attention Gregg Rollins
    P.O. Box 333
    Millersburg, IN. 46543

    Look up on the internet just get a number to the president ( Gregg Rollins)

    Call and if you are lucky you may get a response.

    OK now sit down and document in writing and with documents and pictures. Describe your issue and demand a response to the issue to fix it in a timely manner.

    Send it registered mail return receipt.

    Copy the dealer and send register mail.

    We were denied warranty on a couple of key issues. Warranty guys said it was normal. I documented and sent pictures. Actually had pictures from the first day. Low and behold suddenly they need to take care of it. All of a sudden - all the issues we had been denied were now covered.

    Now copy Berkshire Hathaway.
  • You should have no problem getting the number from your delivering dealer unless it's General RV.
  • Look online for the telephone number for Berkshire Hathaway in Omaha, Nebraska. They own Forest River RV and marine operations.

    When the phone is answered, just ask to talk to Mr. Warren Buffet.
  • I had good experience with Forrest River. I had a problem with a tire, but this is under tire warranty not RV warranty. It was a long process to get a response from the tire company, for a Westlake tire, but I got it.

    Join the Columbus RV Facebook group and ask there. They have contacts for several people at Columbus that have been very helpful
  • As a Cedar Creek owner I've had nothing but praise for the CC division but last summer my friend had to deal with a tire recall on his Salem and it being a Forest River product I assumed he would be treated like I have by Cedar Creek,,boy wuz' I wrong!! Simply put it was like pushing a mule up a ladder in the dark and his "no surrender" approach was the way he got things done, I'm looking forward to seeing how this Forest River division pans out, good luck!
  • Palomino RV operates as a separate division of Forest River Inc, so you will need to deal directly with them.
