Coachmen Motor Home Warranty issue
We bought a 2018 Coachmen Pursuit 29ss in February, 2018. We have taken two short trips, both of which ended with our having to take it in for warranty work. The last trip, a long weekend to a campground not far away, we were almost stranded when the slide out got stuck 1/2 in and 1/2 out. I finally was able to get it to slide in and upon returning home called the dealer to get an appointment to take it in. The appointment was set for 2 weeks later. As of this date, it is past 2 months since we took it in. It is still not repaired and the dealer will not hazard a guess when it will be. The issue seems to be a parts availability problem, although I suspect more at work here. I won't go too far into that, let's just say I don't have any faith in the dealer's ability to correctly diagnose the problem. They originally said it was the control module, replaced that and still didn't work. I have called Forest River direct and have not gotten a straight answer as to if and when the needed part (now they say a wiring harness) will be available. My question is, since we are nearing the point where the coach has been at the dealer more time than it has been in my possession, should I expect Coachmen to extend the warranty period? I realize the only people who can answer that is Coachmen, I just wanted to hear thoughts on whether I have a chance of getting this granted.2KViews0likes9CommentsRe: Planning Yellowstone Trip

If people would just obey the rules and not block the road when they stop to see the wildlife it would be much better. It is not uncommon to get a 20 minute back up because of a small group of some animal. You have your reservations already so enjoy the park. Yeah, that was meant as a tongue in cheek kind of comment. The date is more a function of when we can go than it is any expectation of smaller crowds. Doesn't hurt to be optimistic though!397Views0likes0CommentsPlanning Yellowstone Trip
I am planning a Yellowstone trip in late August 2017. We've never been and would like advice on whether to try for reservations at Fishing Bridge Campground or one of the private campgrounds outside the park. Pulling a 30 foot Keystone Laredo with a long bed quad cab RAM 2500. Thanks in advance for advice.6KViews0likes26Comments
