Agree, nobody should charge for anything warranty related, those costs are entirely handled by FR.]]> Mon, 12 May 2014 10:31:00 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=4709&PID=45898#45898 Microwave not working : Mine went out and I called my... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=4709&PID=45890#45890 Author: sandlapper

Mine went out and I called my dealer which is about 600 miles from me and they had Forest River to send me a new one. I got it promptly and have it installed and it easy to do. Like the others said giving them $50.00 to replace a product under warranty is kind of crooked I think.

I'd avoid that FR dealer. The $50 mystery charge is a giant red flag.

Sounds fishy to me, any other Forest River dealer who is both Authorized and Willing to do warranty work for you shouldn't need to charge you anything to file paperwork with Forest River.  I've had warranty work done at a different dealer before and there was zero issue or even a question asked.

I do not think you'd have any luck asking your selling dealer to reimburse you, the warranty work is their responsibility if you bring it to them.
