This will be our 2nd rv and bouncing around here I have a concern about warranties.
Our current FW is a Forest River and at closing the dealer offered us a Forest River bumper to bumper warranty for the second year at a cost of $100. The first year was included in the purchase price. It was a one time only offer but was a no-brainer and we bought it.
That dealer did not offer us any third party warranty and I see on this site discussions of insurance company-type programs. I have 2 friends that have had nothing but problems trying to get action involving their extended warranties on motorhomes.
It never enterred my mind that someone might try to sell me an extended warranty on a FW. Should I expect that? And don't the individual components such as frig, ac, furnace, water heater etc. have warranties that extend past the intial year?
After that first year with my Forest River product Suburban Dometic etc. all contacted me each year thereafter trying to sell extentions.
