RV Advocacy—Who’s In YOUR Corner?
The RV industry has its own advocacy association, the RVIA. The RV Dealers have their organization, the RVDA. Both of these respected and long-standing organizations serve a purpose for their respective clientele. When it comes to the RV buyers, however, it’s not quite so clear.
Each brand often has an owner’s club that can band together and champion for, or against, the RV manufacturer itself. However, with an RV that is constructed from hundreds of products across dozens of brands, there is only so much the manufacturer will do.
You may find an RV club that stems from the chassis manufacturer that might have some sway when it comes to chassis issues, but again that is limited to just the chassis itself.
There are, of course, the major RV clubs such as Escapees and Good Sam. While they often have a hotline or advocacy corner of some kind that may yield results, it’s usually just a lucky few per month that reap those benefits.
Where does the average RV owner go when their buying or ownership experience has been anything from less-than-stellar to fully catastrophic?
