Issues with new coach

[Goldencrazy]

Last summer I traded for a new Winnebago Suncruiser 38Q 2016. It arrived in early November. Had some initial issues and dealer attempted to repair. My dealer was Camping World in Deforest WI-Madison. I so wanted this to be a good experience as I want Camping World to succeed as a big box for RVers. It is also not far from home so very easy to get service. It took two months to figure out why the satellite was not working but they fixed it. The crack in the roof was repaired by a specialist shop and you cannot tell there was a problem. So after two months we departed for our winter wandering. Along the way we discovered the satellite radio did not work and felt a soft spot in the floor. The day we got home the levelers stopped working. So we took it back to have the repairs made. We were in no hurry and so told them if there were people with more urgent needs move them in front of us. After another two months the floor was fixed, the radio replaced, levelers functioning so progress. Problem is that now no power to the satellite operator box or the matrix. In the same area we have power to the DVDs,dvr's etc.I tested outlets and all are hot. I checked every breaker and fuse I could find and no luck. So took it back to Camping World and they will call when ready. Lucky I am still three weeks away from needing it but we are going on three months of service on just this time. Always frustrating when something works when you take it in and doesn't when you get it back. We have used it for 3 months and at dealer for nearly 6 months. Too many small things wrong for a new coach. Not sure whether to fault Winnebago for bad job or blame Camping World for poor techs who can't fix it. I love the coach layout and the new transmission. Just want everything to work. I have had three previous Winnebagos and never this kind of problem. My final complaint. When I picked it up it was filthy inside. They obviously used saw to remove floor to repair the brace and then re tile and it caused a good layer of dust. I had old screws in cup holder and one on floor. Nothing we can't clean but I thought good customer service has someone clean up the mess they make. To me it reflects a lack of pride and customer service. Maybe I expect to much. I would be satisfied if it just all worked. We can clean it.

Sign of the times I think, ours has four minor cosmetic issues and the dash A/C doesn't get cold.
Took a week for Thor to give Camping World approval to fix 3 of the 4 cosmetic items. Camping World has appealed the fourth item with Thor. The dash A/C goes into Ford on Jul 6th. Most likely at least one night in a motel for that one.

We purchased our 2015 ACE from Camping World in Madison and the service you're receiving is typical of that store. They had our ACE over 5 months of the first year we owned it and never did complete the warranty work. Do yourself a favor and contact Winnebago. Get your coach out of there and take it to a competent repair facility. The people in their service department could care less about the customers and the store manager would make a fantastic used car salesman. Made us all kinds of promises that he never came through on. Then hid in his office when we came to pick the coach up. After catching the service lady in another lie I contacted Thor while I was in the store. They told us to get our coach out of there and take it anywhere we wanted to get it repaired. They stood behind everything with no problem. Then as we're getting ready to leave the manager shows up to tell us to get out and never come back again. Not a problem. Camping World and Good Sam will never see another penny of our hard earned money. Let my Good Sam membership expire as well as Travel Assist (free with your FMCA membership but from a different provider). Will also not renew my Roadside Assistance when it expires (Coach Net sounds like a better provider). Buy my RV supplies from the local dealer or Amazon There are options and I refuse to support a company that's only concern is profit at the cost of customer service.
