Can You Trust Camping World RV Repairs? [Travel Nurse Family]

[@circlestar8697]

They should have fixed your frame when they did your spring

[@NoOrdinaryPath]

agreed

[@markbaehne9389]

-Propane-try finding a Tractor Supply Store or Ace Hardware or a propane refill store, so much cheaper,than KOA been there done that also exchanges don’t usually have full bottles !

You go girl. You didn't cry about the propane and you figured it out. I am so impressed.

[@NoOrdinaryPath]

Haha! RVing taught me sometimes you just gotta figure things out. No sense crying about it. :) ... I mean I still cry about some things though. 😅

Always replace springs in pairs!!! Camping world should know this.

[@JohnSmith-rv9vf]

i'd dtitch the 5 gallon tanks and buy 10 gallon tanks

Buy an extra leaf spring for a spare since it's so hard to find.

[@danielsplayhouse3804]

In the future you should see about upgrading your leaf springs and your axles since you're living in it full-time and traveling what I did to my RV when I had it

[@VARider1]

Bought a Dish Satellite from Camping World and received a Good Sam's discount. No complaints on buying accessories.

[@marlenesewell4498]

Don't know about camping world yet but I personally have had a bad experience with Fire Stone just trying to buy tires 🤔 so I took myself to Less Swabs great people even with my other vehicle that I don't have tires with them yet.🙂.

[@Brenda-lc7jj]

Camping World in Newport News, VA put awning toppers on my 5 slides. They left a tool on a slide which they closed up and I didn’t find it until we got to the RV park. They also put a big scratch in my table. I found the tool because I noticed there was rip in my slide roof. Took me about 2 hours to get it out so I could operate the slide to leave at the end of the weekend. They had to replace the roof on the slide. That was the second time I had a bad experience with them so NO MORE for me. Found a small local RV repair company and never looked back.

[@robbiefrentz9427]

I can tell you the weld job on the bracket holding your spring was junk. It’s amazing it held. Let me know if it did please

[@RogerKastel]

Our camper was 3 weeks old, developed a leak in a window. Couldn't get appoint to get repaired until 2 months later. Campingworld had camper for one month, charged me $596 for warranty work, a week later after another rain event, the same window leaks in the same place. Apparently the techs do not know how to do proper repairs. The leak wasn't repaired.

[@innerspaceavailable]

I would get your rig weighed as soon as possible. I would suspect you are lopsided for weight and possibly over the capacity of your springs and axles. We use Northern Tool for getting a lot of parts for trailers and the quality on the springs, perches, etc is very nice. Alot of these campers are made as cheaply as possible and as a result they go super cheap on the stuff like tires, wheels, axles, bearings, springs etc. Once you get it weighed on each axle you will have a better idea whats going on there.

[@NoOrdinaryPath]

We are planning on it. We were so focused on getting back to KC for the holidays - we are hoping to drop some weight while we are here and then take it to weigh. We had it weighed when we purchased the new truck in August and it was not over weight for the truck we never adjusted the hitch so I'm sure it's not distributing weight as it should be.

[@deduct2175]

It's your gas regulator. Had this same problem last summer!

[@Phenixrising-p1p]

P.s. you guys mentioned you smelled propane might of been because you were close to being out. If there isn't a steady amount going to the heater it turns itself off after a minute or two. But meantime some does escape.

[@NoOrdinaryPath]

That is true for sure. We did find out what the issue was... We'll be doing a video soon about it. : Thanks so much for watching.

They say propane has gone up substantially

[@chrislawall17]

We didn’t have the work done at camping world but did have the same issue. We have a 2017 keystone outback 29ubh and all 4 of our springs went flat one was broken. We upgraded to heavier duty springs, cre 3000 Equalizer, heavy duty shackle straps, and grease able wet bolts. So from what I gather on keystone forums, they use good dexter axles, but the running gear isn’t dexter and is the cheapest gear they can find.

[@NoOrdinaryPath]

Wow, good to know! Thanks for sharing. :)

Happy to leave there and never never never go back. thjanksd camping world

[@johntaylor7288]

Stay as far away from Camping World as possible!

[@domfer2540]

You most likely checked your axel rating. I have seen you problem with other trailers with under rated axels for a trailer. Check you have grease fittings on leaf springs bolts, second check your tires are tracking straight, if not you may have week axels. Check the trailer weight tag for axel weight and have the trailer weighed is you have a acceptable reserve. Also, check your tires for weight, it all tires are made the same.

[@NoOrdinaryPath]

We have gotten a new underside since this video - new axels, suspension, and springs

[@davidnoyes3373]

I had my motor home there for a banks system. They took three days to get at it. When they did they broke a head bolt and took another week ti repair. We had to stay in hotel at significant expense . They wouldn’t answer our phone calls we had to go over several times and got the run around. Then they wanted to charge us for all the time they spent repairing their own mistake. Took alot of arguing to get them to correct and even then we had to put through warranty. Don’t ever go there!

I agree with your top comments. Camping World selling PRACTICES are borderline Criminal and not at all Honest. They say one thing and then the opposite is done . Really horrible. I had only one good experience with them. It was with the TECH that installed new furnace. They need sued into being an honest business.

[@TV.Channel3]

Here's a fun fact for my camping RVing Friends... for everyone tech you have 1500 rv's /campers ... so if you need a trade or your sons and daughters needed career,think RV tech.. and remember Camping World didn't build that product they just sold it/serviced it..if your product is less than great you should take that up with the manufacturer which not only helps with resolve for you but also stops future issues in production. And don't wait for the walkthrough to know your unit do your homework first don't rely on a salesperson or even your tech giving you the walkthrough ...review and homework before purchase

Our extended warranty for our truck was a HUGE waste of money. However, our extended warranty on our RV was totally worth every penny. ExtraRide has treated us very well.

[@NoOrdinaryPath]

That is exactly how we feel too. Our RV warranty is with InterState

[@notyouraverageexplorer]

@@NoOrdinaryPath there is just so many ‘loop holes’ in the regular vehicle warranty. We were super unhappy when we had an issue and they said nope nope. Not covered. We did not renew. To this day we still get calls from them. 🤬

[@6582rg]

Most of the problems associated with Camping World involve their corrupt business practices when selling RVs. They also have high employee turnover in their service departments because of low pay and questionable business practices.

[@cruisersrus]

We bought a camper from their sister store gander outdoors. Camper had issues from the time we picked it up. Took them 8 month to replace the counter top and fix some trim. We got it back and the first trip out ac quit. We took it to a small shop and they said the ac had been off recently and it was about 5 years old. We bought our camper brand new and only had it a year 8 months of that it sat at gander outdoors. I can say the buying experience and their shop and warranty is a joke. All they are worried about is making the sale. They will lie to your face about everything just to make a buck.

[@ronbarnes1945]

First thing they ( Camping World ) should have checked the propane tanks for safety and told you they need filled. After fixing the L.P. lines under the trailer and since the cut into the trailer frame should have brought to your attention. And a 2" x 8" steel plate welded to the frame area for frame integrity.

[@NoOrdinaryPath]

They did say they ran a check on the lines. Seems odd it would be empty - so did they they run it out when they checked it? I hope they didn't just "say" they checked it but did not actually. As far as the frame, I didn't think much of it. Thank you for calling attention to it.

[@ronbarnes1945]

We should always take in consideration wherever you go there are dealers in the RV trade under the same name like Camping World depending on areas of locations in each state could be two dealers one might provide professional Service the other not so good.

[@vanlifeonthego6684]

When we started looking for a class B a couple years ago we already knew the number 1 consideration was CW would not be in the mix. One important point to remember is CW also operates as other brands so please do your homework. We live close to a CW that bought out a large independent dealer that many liked in our area near Nashville. This was Cullem and Maxey which is next door to CW near Opryland. Their sign now says Gander RV but otherwise they're CW. Unfortunately, CW buys out numerous smaller chains or independents and seems like some they convert to CW branding and others they use something else. If this was discussed in the video and I missed it, I'm sorry. Travel safe

[@KRich408]

We will never give camping world (especially the Nashville store) another dime, our experience was horrible! Now we didn't technically have service done but the Nashville service department was involved, we purchased a year old Winibago they were supposed to do a thorough inspection and fill the LP tanks, before we took delivery, someone from the service department did walk us through after the supposed inspection took place, the things they did not fix/check were the waste tanks all 3 were frozen not from Cold (we now have to pay to have the underbelly dropped and the valves replaced) they did not fill the LP tanks they ran out in 3 days just heating water, there are a lot of other things I can fix myself I won't mention, but all they did was basically walk around it say it's ready. they had plenty of time to do the job over 2 weeks before the delivery driver picked it up. I think this was primarily the sales department get your money and get the customer out the door, they also didn't give us the free grill we were supposed to get. Never doing business with camping world aka gander, aka KOA , aka Good Sam etc etc it's a huge monopoly now $ is the bottom line customer service is a after thought.

[@georgewheeler3731]

Rule #1 Never, Never transport propane tank laying down on their sides, either Empty or Full, They can Explode, sit the tank in the upright position in a milk crate, or U-haul sells the green stand that you insert the tank in, make sure it can't move while you are driving back to or from the trailer. Bunge cords work well there. To keep most people Honest: The Wing nut that you took off the bar to remove the tank. you need to tighten it down and align it even with the bar. Drill a hole thru one wing of the nut and in line with the bar, purchase a long shackle padlock put it thru the hole from the bottom with the key hole up and lock it. in some States people will steal those tanks in a second while your not home. it's expensive to replace what's stolen.

If you think you have a propane leak, get a spray bottle, fill it with soapy water and spray it on all of the connectors on your gas lines. Wherever it's leaking from, you will find from the bubbles coming from the leak.

[@NoOrdinaryPath]

We'll try that next time. Thanks for the tip. :)

[@AdventuresWithBrian83]

Camping World seems to be like most other national chains... The experience varies dramatically from one location to another. I have been completely happy with every interaction I have had with our local Burlington Washington Camping World! It seems like there are a few locations that seem to be repeat bad offenders. For your propane tank situation, get a "gas stop", they are specifically designed to prevent any leak from draining the tank.

Sounds like a smart idea - we'll look into it!

Many explosions have happened that way. Propane doesn’t smell in its original state the odor is added to it i believe. It is heavier than air therefore it sinks and sets and rolls along the ground to low spots. Watch out for those campfires.

[@shaukeki]

You guys should look into a Mopeka tank level system. We just put one on our tank in October before our Halloween trip in the Adirondacks. We were expecting sub freezing temps. Our current camper does not have what you would call a thermal package, however the underbody does have insulation. We had never had it out this late in the year, so we wanted a way to monitor the tanks from inside the rig. Their app is really cool, and it's good to have a mental idea of how long we could run the furnace, hot water, and stove when we had a 9 inch snow dump. If you do decide to get one, try and get the newer version with metal feet, and definitely use the feet!

[@NoOrdinaryPath]

That is a great idea. It would certainly make things a little easier.

[@kpd3308]

Your trailer may still have some lean because the remaining leaf spring on that side was overloaded and may have undergone some plastic deformation. At a minimum, they should have replaced both springs on that side. I would have replaced all the springs with a higher load rating. Yes, that does not increase the axle capacity, but it appears that the springs are currently the weak link.

[@davidbabcock5172]

I’m looking now at buying a camper from them and as long as you bring it in once a year for a $200 dollar service a new camper has a lifetime warranty.

I did get one from Camping world. I have a friend who got one from another place because he said the service was bad at CW but then found out service at all dealers is shitty.

So had a spring break on the road. Actually had the axle roll under my fifth wheel. Found a trucker service, they came got the tires off both side of the axle with the broken spring. Followed me back to a truck service spot, they looked at it. Called a spring shop, had a part the next day and fixed it. There are folks who drive commercial trailers of all size, some no bigger than a travel trailer. My out of pocket, including the road service was about $600 bucks. Go with the commercial guys. And I have meet several folks (mostly with toy haulers) who immediately throw out the stock suspension and upgrade it. As a mechanical engineer, I think the springs are deliberately soft, for the load to reduce jolt. This is really on the trailer manufacturer, for cheezing out on the springs.

[@cornfed123567]

the suspension on most travel trailers and fifth wheels are not actually designed to carry liquid in the tanks, most manufacters say not to haul it with water. on decent roads it works out ok but once you start hitting dirt roads with water in the tanks stuff starts cracking and breaking. im sure in this case in the video when the bracket broke the spring was damaged, but since its warranty and they may have found no visible damage to the spring they didnt replace it and it finally broke. im a mechanic on rental construction equipment. we have had many trailers get overloaded by customers and break suspension parts. we replace everything connected to the broken components because we have had trailers break a week after the repair because of this reason.

It all blew up when we ready to sign and there was a $1,500 transport fee. Tried to make it out like it was normal. Ya right maybe for them, but I've done this rodeo a few times and this was first!

We haven't had a problem with camping world, the local dealer is good for service.

We thought about eating at the Back Stage grill while we waited but ended up at the park instead. :)

@@NoOrdinaryPath all of the restaurants along the road going to camping world are good. We have stayed in two rivers several times and have enjoyed take out from a few of them.

I am sure someone has said this before but if your living in it, upgrade to 30lb tanks, you will burn thru those 20lb tanks too quick especially in the winter using the furnace. I got 30's with my fifth wheel and winter camping burns through them fast, though of going to 40 but they won't fit in my front cabinet when the tanks stay

People are much more likely to air their negative experiences than their positive ones. That said, I've dealt with Camping World when they were up in Bath, NY on numerous occasions: to purchase (2) travel trailers, a class C and a dolly for a toad. The only problem I ever had was with the dolly. Less than ten miles from their location, the brakes started smoking. A newbie in the shop had wired them incorrectly. They sent a crew out to load the dolly on a flatbed, took it back to the shop and had it fixed the next day. The newbie was fired. Yes, what they sell in the store is a bit overpriced, but if you're in an area where you've no other shop to get parts from....

They did me wrong and broke my shower and then said it wasn't them. Plus I've heard a lot of other bad repairs and breaking things they weren't supposed to touch. So its a no for me on camping world for repair. I'm good with just buying waste water treatment pods from them.

[@NoOrdinaryPath]

I'm sorry that happened to you. They aren't our first choice but we feel lucky we didn't end up with a horror story. Thanks for watching!

[@kevincampbell4941]

I have only used Camping World one time for service and it was a horrible experience and if I can avoid them I will....

[@NoOrdinaryPath]

Sorry that happened. I'll be honest I was a little nervous given all the stories. Sounds like we got lucky.

[@dougdavis6917]

Would never deal with camping world, tried to once and it was a joke

[@bchalker]

Of course the "give Camping World a bad name". They charged you for priority shipping for a part it took 3 weeks to get.

[@NoOrdinaryPath]

Well, not that it's much better, but they actually didn't order the part until we returned for the 3 week appt. We aren't saying they didn't earn their bad reputation but we are happy that we didn't end up with a horror story like others we've heard. It was annoying to pay for expedited shipping but we made that choice.
