This is the exact message I was going to post. I agree 100% with you. I have contacted AG's offices in various states regarding companies and once they got involved those companies fully cooperated. The only thing I would offer is when they contact the AG's office, they should provide them with as much documentation as possible to help prove that fraud was committed. Hopefully the way they found out from Alliance about the insurance claim made by the dealership is in an email. That email would be gold for the AG's office.

[@lenb3661]

I’m not an RV mechanic, but I am an electrician and have 40+ years experience with construction and also mobile equipment. The construction techniques being used by the RV industry in recent years are not adequate for what an RV goes through. Glue won’t hold trim molding on. Staples won’t hold cabinets together. Poor workmanship and fit up won’t keep water out and sealants won’t work properly trying to fill huge gaps. RVs go through hell on the roads. Imagine your house suffering an earthquake every day on the road. Frames twist, body panels flex, etc. Then throw in often poorly installed wiring and plumbing, etc. Then add the many RVs that are parked in the hot sun - or frozen north - or extreme humidity- extreme environments that adds to problems even without putting a mile on the wheel bearings. My wife’s and my solution - we built our own van. I would also consider building my own on a box truck chassis or modernizing an older RV that was built before they started going downhill in the 20teens. And be sure to do the math on ownership and operating costs. Even a van costs over a dollar a mile to operate considering initial cost, depreciation, maintenance, fuel, etc. Larger units cost two to three times that. They aren’t worth owning if only used a couple weeks a year.

I assure you, this is the way to go. Use your own reliable car/vehicle. Sedan or SUV, perfectly fine to pack for weeks, even months. AirBnB, VBRO, cabin, lots of deals to be had for weekly rentals, even better if you rent for a month. I assure you, it is much, *much* better -- and far cheaper -- to rent an AirBnB for weeks, even months, versus spending six figures on a defective RV, insuring it, the enormous fuel cost, and dealing with all the defects. Regular kitchen, one or more bathrooms with plumbing that works, perhaps multiple bedrooms, usually excellent wifi. And you can stay as long, or as short, as you wish. Another bonus is you never ever have to worry about parking, tunnels, camping, rules, power, hookups, gray and black water tanks, dumping stations, showers, food spoiling in the RV, and on and on. Your sedan or SUV will go anywhere and everywhere with ease. Will never understand, never, why people continue to spend significant sums on these atrocious RV products, when far cheaper, and superior, accommodations are so readily available. And the ultimate bonus is, when you are done with the trip, lock the door and leave. No further responsibility, no maintenance, no replacing tires and brakes and changing oil and fixing all the crap that breaks in these overpriced junkboxes.

The problem is not limited to the Southeast. Many unscrupulous dealers are transporting these hurricane damaged RVs to others parts of the country. If you're in the Southeast, possible hurricane damage may be on your mind as you consider a purchase. But if that same RV has been brought North or West, potential buyers simply aren't even considering hurricane damage as a possibility. More than ever, pre-purchase inspections are vital!

One overwhelming connecting theme in the vast majority of Liz's videos is the lack of the buyers getting an independent inspection. People really need to do research on buying any RV and unless they are qualified inspectors themselves, it is not wise to buy an RV without one. Unfortunately, a lot of people just rely on the dealers PDI, which is supposed to indicate Pre Delivery Inspection, but in actuality means "Probably Didn't Inspect"!

Someone needs to make a checklist for buyers… like run the slides in and out 5 times, etc… basically doing a quality check at the dealership

[@Robnord1]

No offense, but 95% of buyers are not qualified to properly evaluate an RV, new or used, at a dealer. For instance, how do you know a Schwintec in-wall slide system sounds right or if it's a garbage system with nationwide bad reputation? You do not. Hire an independent certified RV tech or RV inspector is the answer. They will catch most problems IF you don't cheap out by limiting them to 1 or 2 hours.

This is absolutely a dealership issue. The damage took place after at the dealership purchased the RV. The dealership needs to buy it back. The fact that Alliance picked up the RV and said they would make the repairs is amazing.

[@thedotc]

I agree the state AG needs to be notified. GA law might also prevail. Isn’t this a simple case of the dealer selling it as ‘new’ when it was not new anymore - but never previously sold and clearly damaged? If the dealer did not file an insurance claim, aren’t they entitled to file one? If the dealer is irresponsible enough to NOT have their fleet insured, they deserve whatever the AG comes up with. If not insured, are they eligible to file an Idalia-related claim to FEMA? Further, what about all the other trailers that would have been similarly damaged in THAT hurricane? The AG should be further investing ALL sales of trailers damaged in Idalia which were sold as ‘new’ to other unsuspecting buyers. And, the investigation should include similar sales of any trailers that sat through any of the subsequent hurricanes. This case could be even bigger… A&L is NOT the only trailer dealership in hurricane regions. States often have laws that protect buyers from unknowingly purchasing vehicles that were damaged in flooding. This is similar and Georgia State Law might prevail here. PLUS: why is Alliance even entertaining offering a discount of that kind? It’s not their fault! Conditional on buying from the same scammy dealer? Something smells of the two of them being in some kind of cahoots, to perhaps help the dealer sell the damaged units??? Get the AG on the case And if the AG a case produces nothing, in time for Brad and Jan to go on their planned trip, perhaps they should rent one. If they want to buy a truly ‘new’ unit, from that dealer using the $10k offer, I would recommend they have the dealer provide the actual ‘delivery date’ of the new unit… making sure it was delivered AFTER the most recent hurricane.

I would sign my document first and hand it over to the sales staff or ownership of the dealership. I would make sure that it addresses future transportation back the the agreed place of repair, compensation for any stay, personal transportation and meals during time the buyer is without their home on wheels and replacement of the unit with a loaner RV of equal or better age, design, and capacity of the one the buyer agreed to initially purchase...with much more detail. The industry needs to be taken to task and if walking away is what it takes because the seller's refuse to sign my buyer's addendum. PhucM. Next lot please.

Contact the Attorney General and let it go to a jury trial. Contact your news station and ask to speak to an investigator reporter. The publicity will hit major news organizations, and the dealership will be bankrupt. Most notably, new laws will come on the books, and the RV industry will be open to fines for fraud and be held accountable for deception. This case can change the entire RV industry!

They should do these things because they want to not because of the power of social media..... the power of social media is amazing cameras have saved my life and social media

A&L RV needs some Google maps review done explaining how they treat customers.

[@JohnSmith-ug5ci]

Clearly a crooked dealer. Time to find an attorney and sue.

[@RLPnKY]

Dealer = 100% FRAUD. Manufacturer should prove an insurance claim had been made and BUY BACK THE RV!!!!!

[@LizAmazing]

Thanks for this, and for watching. Stay tuned.

[@Paysoncougarfan.7885]

Sue the dealer for fraud, pain and suffering, ask for triple the original purchase price and buy back will be a quick settlement!

[@BobK-z4z]

If the seller didn't disclose that the RV was hurricane damaged get an attorney and sue the seller.

I was going to buy a Black Series HQ17, 2022 model brand new in Anchorage Alaska, did not buy it after seeing alot of youtube complaints about quality.

[@LizAmazing]

Yep. I did a video about a couple who purchased a Black Series. I have not been hearing good things. Thanks for watching

[@DavidJones-su9ob]

Good thing you checked. Black Series RV's have had a ton of problems!

[@Settlingintoalaskaliving]

@ I just watched Liz’s video on the Black Series, very informative. They wanted 42,995 for a 2022 model and they recently raised the price on it, in the past week by 2K, dealer also said for $2800 I could buy a 7 year protection plan on it as well.

[@kechkaren]

Why did I just know these dealers would sell hurricane RV’s!!!!!!!

[@LizAmazing]

It's a scary world out there!! Truly, buyer beware! Thanks for watching.

[@mikewadams1]

Glad to see you back in a RV! It just feels right!

[@edwardyudkoff7137]

It continues to amaze me how eloquent these people Liz interviews can detail the multitude of issues they have AFTER their purchase. What's it going to take for viewers to stop purchasing rv's.

[@MaryWehmeier]

File with the Attorney General’s Office on the dealer for fraud.

[@TheFoxyjasmine]

Wow! Feel so bad for these folks. We are experiencing the same thing, too. Even with inspection done, some of those issues can not be discovered until used. The entire RV industry, manufacturer and dealership, need to be shut down. This is withholding critical information. These folks deserve a buy back plus more.

[@WatersandWilderness]

The bigger the RV and the combination of slide outs, the more problems. I have no doubt that folks want bigger for the room, however, you are looking at more problems. Don't purchase them, wait a few years until the manufacturers get their product builds correct. AND DON'T PURCHASE ANYTHING FROM THE AREAS OF THE HURRICANE! NEVER TRUST AND GET AN INSPECTION ON NEW RV'S IF YOU DARE TO BUY ONE. Stick with what you have, sometimes, smaller is better. Consider buying a van or a bus and having a local business build it out for you.

[@beverlyweber171]

Watch out for storm damaged vehicles and RV's turning up for sale at dealerships.

[@LizAmazing]

You said it, Beverly!

[@mildredwebster2822]

This is so criminal what they did to these people. Omg, how awful
