  • My 2020 solitude 310 is back on the road

    Purchased this Solitude as we got rid of our 303 Reflection back at the end of May. We used the 310 for 3 days in June when we noticed a cut in the theater sofa right after we purchased, the front jack was leaking, one of the tires had a flaw in the tread and the awning was pulling loose. After a long argument with our dealer Colerain-Indy about replacing the sofa. Colerain wanted to fix the 'leather', as we all know the furniture is poor quality to begin with. I contacted Jerry McCarthy and Brian Smith at GD and they agreed that the sofa would be replaced not repaired. I sent the pictures of the jack, tire, awning and sofa and got a case #. Colerain didn't do anything as far as ordering the parts or communicating with GD even though they claimed they did. I coordinated all the shipping to Colerain with LCI and GD.
    What a PIA dealing with these guys, this is my 3rd camper purchased from Colerain-Indy and will probably be my last! They are happy to sell you a very expensive coach but fixing it is another story. Customer service isn't part of their business plan. All I got from the General Manager was lip service and a promise to have the service manager call me the next day, that was in July (crickets was all I heard) no one called.
    Communication from GD to Colerain helped to get them off their duff as they weren't honoring their agreement with GD. I finally picked up my camper today after sitting for 2 months thanks to crappy service at Colerain_Indy.
    As usual GD and LCI customer service was exceptional. I would never have got any of this done without their help and involvement.
    We will see how arrogant the dealers are in the future as the RV market is on a down hill slide.

    Unfortunately, this is a theme with many, many dealers. I'm not sure what, if anything can be done about it. Thank goodness, GD, LCI and others have our backs.

        It would be interesting to learn what GDRV does when it learns of these poor dealer service or other events. Since the company inception, GDRV has touted picking the very best dealers to sell (and I trust) service their products. Yes, occasional hick ups will occur even with the very best dealers but when there is a trend (even if slight)........something needs to be done. Given this, it does not seem acceptable that GDRV would not address these poor dealer service issues.
