Unless your looking at new and the 1 year warranty that comes with an RV, then how does the question apply?
Good point.
The only compelling reason to take an RV back to one of their dealers is to have warranty work done on it - And that only applies until the warranty expires.
Just about every appliance and fixture in the average RV is generic, and also commonly installed in other brands of RVs. Any competent independent service shop is familiar with it, and capable of troubleshooting, repairing or replacing it.
Unlike the warranty, an RV manufacturer's reputation
is important. RVs built by manufacturers with established reputations for quality tend to need fewer repairs.
It's no different than buying cars: If you're concerned about reliability, you look for certain brands, and avoid certain others.
