I had the same problem last year at Premeir Freighliner in Dallas before I got rid of my coach. I made a stink about them not telling me on the phone before I drove out of my way. They finally relented and did the work, albeit poorly that I had to have re-done a month later in Las Vegas.
Their excuse was that on older machines, it's common to "find" other problems in addition to the reported problem, that ends up costing the customer a lot of money - sometimes the customer isn't prepared to handle the surprise and they end up wanting to leave without paying for the work already done.
I complained to Freightliner - Their answer was that because the service centers are indepently owned, they can set their own policies. I suspect that such a small amount of business comes from the RV side that they just don't care about it.
Doesn't make it right, but it is what it is...
