+1 We stand as one on the subject.

Many have very passionate feelings on religion, politics and firearms. I am one of those persons. However, this just isn't the right venue for those sort of discussions. Heated arguments and wounded feelings are almost guaranteed. That is not what RPod Owners is about. Let's focus on our common enjoyment of Pods and camping.

If anyone is interested, I did find a link to Forest River's Dealer Warranty Policy. I don't know if the May 17, 2017 changes are included. They can be viewed on the RV D@ily Report site. I think Forest River is attempting to improve its service, but so much relies on dealers. Note that in Forest River's warranty, items such as the converter are not covered by Forest River, but by the component manufacturer's warranty. That would also apply to the furnace, water heater, water pump, air conditioner, stove, etc.

Time to ignore this topic, it has lost it's intent and purpose.

My statement was not "political", but was a form of advocating for consumer protection that should be independent of political party or politics per se.

Certainly no one would argue that the state of warranty repairs for automobiles was "good" decades ago. What I'm suggesting is that those of us that care should advocate for travel trailer manufacturers "catch up" to the automobile industry WRT warranty work. That is not a political statement.

Exactly what sh*t are you referring to?  Certainly nothing I read in the Forum rules.  The brief discussion had to do with legislation that would deal with an issue that appears to be a significant problem amongst buyers of new RV's.  Censoring discussion you don't like is making it political.


There is an off topic area for discussions and comments you feel the need to make, not in this area of the forum.

BTW.. "censorship" arguments don't work on private forums. It's a a private, not public venue, and we are here at the owners and moderators allowance.
