Preventative Measures Go Above And Beyond At See Grins RV Repair In Gilroy

A customer purchased a new ElkRidge 5th Wheel RV with a rear rack for extra storage. During See Grins RV Repair routine post-sale inspection, Smitty noticed that the storage rack was attached too close to the back wall of the RV. When the rack was folded up the motion of the Motor Home traveling down the road would cause the rack to bang back and forth against the wall while the driver would never hear the damaging noise.

During the customer’s first outing there would be noticeable scratching, gouging and eventually the banging rack would create a hold and crack the fiberglass wall. The cracks would grow, leak water, rot wood,  damage the floor and loose overall structural strength.  A timely repair of this damage would require at best a time consuming and costly replacement of fiberglass, which could be covered by the factory warranty.

imagesWith over 35 years experience in the Motor Home industry, Smitty knew the best action for all parties would be to fabricate preventive measures so this problem would never come about. The solution required increasing the storage rack stop position with metal and welding. After the fix was completed and painted, the modification looked like it came straight from the factory.

While this debit of valuable time and resources was put on the books of See Grins RV Service & Repair Center, it was the the most thoughtful action promising outstanding customer care that See Grins RV has a reputation for delivering.

Believe it or not, you can’t loose when you purchase your RV from See Grins RV in Gilroy.1247681-0-1245001

She went from knowing nothing about RVs to buying a fifth wheel in Gilroy CA.

Treva visited See Grins RV not knowing anything about RVs, but was interested in owning motor home. She met up with Bob W. in sales who sat down with her to learn all about what she needed and then provided lots of great options.

After looking at many of different RV models, Treva fell in love with 2005′ NuWa 5th Wheel. Bob offered her a very price, but she didn’t have a truck to tow it so Bob said they would deliver the RV to her house and set it up at no cost.
Treva put a down payment on the fifth wheel and went home to do some research. She quickly learned that she got an unbeatable deal at See Grins RV, came right back the next morning and purchased her 2005 NuWa 5th Wheel.

Now it was time to deliver her 5th wheel, but it had a few problems and she needed her RV to be repaired, fast. There was a part that had been ordered for the east coast, but never came in. So Smitty found a local company to make the part. He kept on the company until it was completed so it could be quickly installed into her RV.
After the motor home was delivered it was discovered that the kitchen facet was leaking. The very next day See Grins RV sent out their tech Jase with a new facet and quickly installed it. Treva was delighted that Jase was clean and befriended her cat and dog.

It was a Saturday morning and Bob figured he’d be out of luck to find a reputable RV shop that was open and could get him in for repair.

He found See Grins RV on his smart phone with Google Maps and gave them a call.

See Grins RV was opened and offered to take a look at the problem.

Bob arrived at 11am, but the problem has tough to figure out. The lighting circuit kept blowing fuses. The technicians figured there was a short in the circuit and were able to trace the location to very most rear of the coach.

Removing the entire rear fiberglass enclosure which housed all of the rear lighting system was a big job and the outcome was uncertain. After all that work, the short could be somewhere else.

But luck was on their side as they quickly found  the cause of the problem. Somehow during the manufacturing process a screw was unknowingly places too close to a wire of the rear lighting system. It was only a matter of time for the screw to cut the connection and short the circuit.

The screw was re-positioned, the wire was repaired and the rear enclosure was reattached and re-sealed.

By 2pm Bob and his family were able to continue their happy journey!
