Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: My husband and i purchased a 33 ft. 1990 fleetwood cambria rv for $16,0000 via a cashiers check for the full amount in december of 2003 from the above dealer. ed was the person who sold us the rv. ed told us that the pink slip was in texas and they would then forward the pink slip to us. we got the pink slip 3 months later, and to our surprise on the pink slip it stated: (rebuilt salvage, loss unknown flood damage). along our trip we experienced a number of problems. it took us a week to arrive in spokane, washington. the driving compartment heater/airconditioner went out, the generator went out, the carbon oxide automatic shut off valve was missing and there was carbon dioxide build-up within the cabin because the carbon dioxide alarm kept going off, the rear mud flap fell off, and there were massive leaks within the cabin both including the following: the front windshield leaking into the driver's area onto the electronics, both passenger windows leaks, which caused visibility problems while driving, the children's mattresses and wood were soaked due to window and roof leaks. additionally, because of this, there may be issues concerning mold that they may or may not have known about. this is a great concern as we had our two small children living in the rv with us. additionally, when we finally arrived at our destination, the water/septic tank braces broke and the whole assembly fell to the ground making the rv impossible to move. a company came out and temporarily strapped the assembly up so that we could have it moved to a repair center and have these issues taken care of. we were forced to stay in a hotel for over two weeks. the repair cost came to $4,500.00. additionally, we were also advised that we could not use the awning on the rv until they ordered a part on it and it would be sent to us. we have yet been able to get this part. we would like a full refund plus repairs paid to washington auto carriage in spokane, washington.*ak |
