delivery of this coach ! Why doesn't Newmar make a statement that it is safe to drive ? Thank you for your time, Paul & Kim.

After you are out of the loop, would you jump back in by making statements now? Newmar can't evaluate the problem now it is out of their control.

It is your coach, the rust problem is between you and your dealer, their mistake of not telling you about the rust, is off set by you not doing due diligence of not inspecting the coach..

I say that knowing I probably would not have looked at the chassis either. BUT we are responsible for knowing what we are buying.

But it is a case of what to do now. (If it were me) I'd spray it with rust converter wait a few weeks, inspect it again, if there is any rust spray it again, then have the whole chassis undercoated, and place the coach on an inspection cycle of every 6 months to catch any advancing rust.

There are several brand names of these rust converters on the market, I don't know if one is any better that the other.
