Where do you get service work done

[flyfishing48]

As we look into moving to a class A, wondering where to get maintence and repairs to the drive train. Would like to hear about both gas and diesel.
For my remote home base, the nearest RV dealer selling motor homes that I am interested in is General RV in Birch Run Mi.
If I had a Ford Chasssis I suppose I could go to a Ford Dealer. Diesel not sure where I would go.

I find that most Cumins will work on our DP and many truck shops too. There are many allison dealers out there as well as those that service Cumins. In fact there are more of them then Ford dealers for my Ford class C

Have to admit that a gasser is far more easier to get repaired while on the road. It is the reason I choose gas after watching my diesel friends sit for days broken down.

That said. I use Ford Truck Division first. ALL car dealerships have a truck division within a short radius of the car dealership. You just have to ask them where it is.

If not close to a town it's the local semi truck repair shops.
**Had my parking brake hang up and it is part of the drive train and got excellent repair at a semi shop. Part came in in 15 minutes and they took it out and replaced it and I was back on the road in no time.

All other minor repairs and maintenance I have done right at the CG I am staying at at the time by the recommended local RV Mobile Repair.

Once I learned all this, it made full time RV'ing a much more pleasant experience.

Many large truck shops will work on diesel or gas motorhomes. A shop that's certified/trained for your engine brand would be preferable for diesels. If in warranty, then your choices may be more limited.

I do not advise going to an RV dealer for chassis work/maintenance. Stick with the truck service centers that know the engine/chassis, whether it be gas or diesel.
