"I had the misfortune of having a dealer who liked to go through the motions rather than really fix things"

IMO, there is no reason to continue to use a dealer you are dis-satisfied with, you can arrange for work to be done at other dealers....and DRV has been known to authorize mobile repair service for fulltimers, so there is no reason to leave your home, or eat the transportation costs for most repairs.

In my previous line of work, the cost of anticipated warranty repair was built into the sale price....so either the factory or the dealer has a pot of money commonly referred to as the "warranty reserve" to work from. If you choose to have work done by a dealer other than the selling dealer, it's only a matter of transferring warranty reserve $$$ from one dealer to the other.

I suspect the vast majority of cheerleaders frequent the "other" forum...ya want real world experiences with DRV, this forum is the place to be....IMHO of course.
