	Date of Service:	6/24/2020
	Work Done on:	Class A - Gasoline
	Service Performed:	Pre-purchase repairs and service
	Evaluation of Service Performed:	I can only compare this experience to buying a used car from a corner car lot. The operation is IMPRESSIVE. The sales pitch is IMPRESSIVE. The attitudes are friendly and helpful....until they get your payment. At that point, all promises are forgotten. I can only say "GET IT IN WRITING" and don't be afraid to be INSISTENT that promises are fulfilled before you leave the lot.. I spent 50K on a used Class A. I love the rig, but now after having waited for 6 weeks to take delivery, and two and a half months of having it in my possession, I am more than disappointed with Lazy Days, I am just plain pissed off. I've been waiting for 4 months for a missing window screen to be supplied as promised. Two calls to the service/delivery person have gone unanswered, and the lies they told me are becoming evident on a regular basis. I was told they fixed what they know to be obviously wrong, and that the generator is serviced as a regular practice. WRONG! I found that the generator air filter, fuel filter, and spark plug were never touched. The generator ran okay, but when it started to run a bit rough, I found the deficiency. After finding a small leak, I went to the roof to find it. That's when I found that EVERY seal (which had been replaced, probably by the last owner) was sealed with the WRONG SEALANT. I also realized that there were two missing antenna masts that were never pointed out, though were pretty obvious to anyone who knows RV's. I'm a VERY capable and handy guy, but this was my first large RV, so I trusted....bad decision. When I asked why only 3 auto leveling jacks were touching the ground after a repair, I was told by a service person "I wouldn't lie to you, that's the way they work". The next day another service person told me he'd have it fixed (and did). I have a litany of lies and deceptive promises, starting with my sales person, and continuing to just about every department I dealt with. I won't bore anyone with those VALID issues, but I will tell you that you should DEFINITELY get an inspection done by a certified or knowledgeable RV person...it will be worth the $$$!!! I did not, and I wish I had. DO NOT TAKE DELIVERY until ALL the promised have been fulfilled!! And don't be afraid to ask for things to be fixed and PUT IN WRITING!! That's the only way they'll do repairs. Would I buy from LazyDays again? Yes...if they had what I wanted, and with total due diligence. I know they have a job to do, which is to sell and make money...I just wish they would do it in a more honorable way. Lazy Days would certainly not be my first stop when I buy again... PS...my wife just reminded me.... After putting down our deposit, and being called to pick up the rig, we were asked to make full payment. We asked to do our pre-pick up inspection first, and upon doing so, we found that the rig had been damaged during the process of being moved. I took a few weeks to have that repaired (nicely done), but had we not noticed it (it was OBVIOUS body damage), they would have had us drive off without letting us know.

	Date of Service:	11/23/2019
	Work Done on:	Class C
	Service Performed:	Repair slide, check on a few issues, generator 20 hrs service, oil change
	Evaluation of Service Performed:	They put a dent in bumper which they fixed. A very visible broken screw head on slide. Oil light went on during ride home. I think they just added oil and didn't do anything else because the indicator on dash wasn't reset and the oil looked very dark and dirty. They paid to take unit to Mercedes for and oil change. When we went to use the bed in the rear slide, we saw lots of white caulk all over the nice wood trim and also that this trim wasn't installed right leaving a gap at the top. Still waiting to see how to fix this. Tiffin says they will send me a new trim and I'm waiting for Northtrail RV to see if they can fit me in but this may take until March or April.

	Company Contact:	Ted Schwartz
	Work Done on:	Class C
	Service Performed:	Repair window, repair paint job, repair water leak, repair cabinets, repair slide out, repair floors, etc. Long list on a brand new RV.
	Evaluation of Service Performed:	Brought my new 2017 Class C RV to be serviced here. Granted there were a lot of problems with it. A lot of little stuff a few big stuff. Was told it would take a little over a month to be repaired. Almost five months later (10 days shy of five months) the RV is FINALLY ready to be picked up. I made reservations to leave that day to head to Colorado to visit my family for Thanksgiving. I had reservations at Thousand Trails in Wildwood to spend the first night after picking up the RV. I rented a car and drove from Orlando to Tampa and arrived around 10:45 am. So excited to get the RV back. The plan was to drive it back to Orlando, pack it up, and FINALLY head out to Wildwood, then to Crater Diamond Nation park, and over to Colorado. I asked for my service rep. Front desk said I already have your papers. Go ahead and sign and I'll have your RV brought to the front. After about 15 minutes the RV was out front. Couldn't wait to get back into my new RV. As soon as I open the door it looked like someone threw a can of coke on the inside of my door. There were spiders all over inside by the steps. I step up and find more spiders and webs in the bunk area. I open the oven and OMG it was like a freaking sandstorm had blown through. It was covered in sawdust. The floor was filthy. I open the bathroom door and I about lost it. It was like arachnophobia was filmed in here. There were spider webs all over the bathroom, into my bath towels. There were suppose to fix the toilet. There were parts of the toilet laying on the ground. They were supposed to fix the speakers. The speakers were never fixed. I told the tech I used a multi-meter they don't work. He informed me that a multi-meter doesn't work on speakers. I said Forest River told me to use one. He said they were wrong. After going home I Googled and found that HE, the tech, was wrong. They were supposed to paint the coach. There were chips in the paint. The window that was blowing out was supposed to be fixed was never fixed. I said I was leaving today for Colorado. So they taped it with masking tape so the window wouldn't blow out. First, how safe is that. Second, it looks horrible and so embarrassing driving a brand new 2017 Forest River Mercedes Benz RV with masking tape holding your window shut. The service manager comes out and said I don't want you to cancel your reservation you should still be able to make it. This was at 2 pm. Um HELLO! The coach is filthy! It's infested with spiders and ants. I have to go home clean it (which will take hours not to mention I'm having that thing fumigated (days)), pack it. No way was I gonna make my reservation. Also here's the thing. When I give someone something, I expect it to be returned to me the same way I gave it to them. NOT INFESTED with SPIDERS!!! and filthy! And when I bring it to someone to have fixed I expected it to be returned to me the way I brought it and BETTER...FIXED!!!! I deep cleaned that coach before bringing it and dropping it off to LazyDays. It's my baby that I seem never to be able to use. And guess what??? You know what the service manager said to me? He said..."It's Florida, we have spiders." I refused to take service of it and left it there. I'm now going to be missing another huge trip, the money I'm out of, the time I took cleaning my house, packing my house up, and time driving to Tampa and back, the rental car it goes on and on. With NO COMPENSATION OFFERED. And they put on there site free soda, coffee, water. The entire time going in and out trying to get people out to look and fix my coach, not one person offered me or my dogs' water, soda, NOTHING! Let's hope they get on the ball this time! And what really *** me off the most. I packed my entire house up because when I returned from our Christmas trip to see my mom & brother I was getting a Pod to move to Colorado.

	Work Done on:	Class A - Diesel
	Service Performed:	Recaulk roof
	Evaluation of Service Performed:	I checked roof after I got back home to Aurora IL. Seemed as though it was a pretty sloppy looking job. Biggest problem was that we encountered a really heavy rain storm on the way back home through Atlanta. Ended up having a leak overhead by the windshield. Did not have any leaks prior to the work being done. Cost a lot of money. Lesson Learned: Never have work done out of town if it can wait to be done at a home location. No recourse. I am not going to give them a bad review. I just learned a lesson.

	Date of Service:	12/15/2016
	Work Done on:	Class A - Diesel
	Service Performed:	Rear full bath toilet vacuum leak, exhaust smell in rear full bath, propane line leak. Before arriving I diagnosed each problem to the best of my ability so that the Service Tech had some idea of how to go about realizing what was going on and how to repair.
	Evaluation of Service Performed:	Vacuum leak was at base of toilet as described, Tech agreed. Toilet removed,new seal installed,toilet reinstalled. Various wire and pipe holes in luggage compartments sealed and new seal replaced on rear bath floor access cover to prevent exhaust leaks. Propane system pressure tested for leaks. New propane regulator and fittings installed, found leak in propane line going to rear water heater as I described. That line was removed, sent to parts, new line must be manufactured by certified commercial manufacturer, line replaced later that day. Propane system tested again, all ok. Tech had full knowledge of the coach systems and did not cut any corners in repairing these issues.

	Work Done on:	Class A - Gasoline
	Service Performed:	Laundry list of warranty work on Fleetwood Bounder. Most very simple. Hardest was to replace a toilet and a Drivers chair
	Evaluation of Service Performed:	Without doubt the worst experience ever for service on any vehicle over the past 50+ years of my life buying vehicles every 3 years. So I am not new to getting service done. Brought in on March 5th. Was told it should be 3 weeks. On April 1 was not done was told it will be ready in 3 weeks. May 1st was told it is not done it will take 3 more weeks, not making this up. May 27th was told it's not done it will take 3 more weeks. Spoke to customer service manager and the service manager and was promised it would be ready in a week. It was not ready. June 11th provided them a list of all the items still not worked on even thought it's been here for 3 months! Got fed up at the end of July and picked up the 150,000 RV with a list of items still needing to be fixed. I am bringing it to the manufacturer to finish any warranty work. 1000 miles each way. Spoke to a director who reports to the EO of Lazydays. He looked in my case and agreed it should not have taken that long. Offered me $200 for my convenience. Really? $200 for 5 months loss of use, 2000 mile trip to get additional work done and a week of vacation time. Needless to say I said to keep the $200 and I will advise everyone and anyone about my experience at Lazydays. Oh, and on the day I picked it up they told me that 2 items on my list need to be brought to Ford across the street because they don't work on those items. 5 months of my RV sitting mostly in their storage lot and they tell me now. Needless to say I will never do business there ever again. I advise others of the story and you can make your own decision.

	Service Performed:	Repair body damage, mostly cosmetic: Replaced trim pieces and decals.

	Date of Service:	6/16/2015
	Work Done on:	Pop-up Trailer
	Service Performed:	I live in Jacksonville FL. I went online to purchase a new pop up camper. I found that Lazydays RV in Seffner FL had a large inventory of new pop ups that were reasonably priced. I contacted a salesman (Shawn) online and after getting the particulars of a specific unit I liked, I decided to purchase it. He took all pertinent information over the phone and went down to Seffner a little over a week later to pick it up. The plan was to drive down trailering a motorcycle I was using in trade, stay the night in the new pop up on in Lazydays RV resort, and drive back to Jacksonville the next day. Upon arriving, after checking in my trade, they took me over to look at the actual pop up I was buying. It was already set up in their RV park. Upon initial inspection, there was an obvious tear and small holes in the canvas of the slide out and one of the canvass support arms was badly bent. It appeared that someone ran into the camper. I asked about the tear and the representative doing the walk thru with us stated they knew it was damaged. He never mentioned anything as to what they were going to do to remedy the situation. I felt as if they thought I was going to accept the unit as is with the damage. (This was a brand new 2016 pop up) I told them I am not accepting the unit as is and that this was unacceptable. The rep then contacted an associate of the salesman that sold me the unit (Sonny). He, in turn, contacted Andy (person in charge od deliveries of new RVs to customers) and Tiffany (who I thing was in charge of the repair department). I asked if they had another unit and they had one, but it was only partially assembled and would not be ready for a few days. They asked if they repaired the unit if I would still buy it; to which I agreed. After several hours, they finally sent some techs over to the pop up to repair it. After a few more hours, the unit was prepared. While I was waiting for the repairs, I went and completed the financial paperwork with their finance dept. When I got back to the trailer, the repairs appeared to be completed, but I noticed the refrigerator was not working. I asked that someone come out to the pop up and give me a walk thru and see what was wrong with the fridge. Nothing was done that day. Additionally, i did an inventory of what was supposed to come with the trailer and noticed the grill and bunk fan was missing. At 8 the next morning, I asked to have the walk thru done and inquired about the missing parts. Several hours later, someone (Mike) finally came out and did the walk thru. I told him of the fridge that wasn't working as well as the missing items. While doing the walk thru, I inquired about several parts that came with the camper and what they were used for. He stated he had no idea on several of the items. To this day, I have parts that came with this pop up that I have no idea what they are to be used for. Mike said he would inquire about the missing parts. He also determined the fridge wasnt working because no one turned it on. About an hour later, he returned with the grill, but made no mention of the bunk fan. He stated someone would be out shortly to show me how to break down the pop up so we can get on the road back to Jacksonville. After a couple of hours, no one ever showed up to show me how to break down the pop up so out of frustration, I started doing it myself. While breaking it down, I noticed the canvass was not sealed properly in the area where they did the repairs the day before. the limiting cable was also stripped. When I discovered this, Sonny was driving by and I flagged him down and told him of the problem. He stated he would contact Andy. After a couple of hours, a tech finally showed up to repair the unit again. At this point, I left the campsite to go get lunch. Andy subsequently called me and I told him to not close up the trailer when the repairs were done so I could verify they were completed. after about a couple more hours, I received a call from Andy that the repairs were completed and the pop up was buttoned up and ready to go. Additionally, he stated someone would be at the trailer to help me hitch up and see me off. When I got back to the trailer, I noticed it was completely closed up and there was no one there to see me off. I called Andy and he and told him no one was there to see me off. Additionally, the bunk fan was still missing and he stated he would order another one and mail it to me. (He never asked for my address...I had to tell him) In sheer frustration, I just hitched up and left because it was 3:30 in the afternoon and I had a 4 hr drive ahead of me. Needless to say, I considered this one of the worst buying experiences I've ever had and will not do business with them again. Nor would I recommend them to anyone. There was a lot of waiting around done waiting on repairs. They boast in their commercials that they have over 100 trained technicians to work on RVs; yet it took hours for someone to come out and do the repairs. What was supposed to be a happy buying experience subsequently turned out to be a nightmare.
	Evaluation of Service Performed:	Absolutely no quality control done on the pop up before it was delivered to me. There was damage to the unit; as well as missing parts. Additionally, it took hours to get technicians to go over to the pop up and do repairs. Repairs were not done correctly the first time.

	Work Done on:	Class A - Diesel
	Service Performed:	Fixed refrigerator, A/C leak, refrigerator latch.
	Evaluation of Service Performed:	We were ready to leave for a 3000 mile trip on the Tuesday after Memorial day. Fridge stopped working. Talked to tech support on both Saturday and Sunday. VERY helpful and patient. When we couldn't fix it they told us to bring it in and they'd work us in. Got here at 1 and in a service bay by 5:30. The delivery team had missed a fuse which the tech replaced and fridge is working fine. The other two items will be repaired under extended warranty. Been waiting 1/2 day for approval but they're all slow.

	Work Done on:	Class A - Gasoline
	Service Performed:	They had a list of 4-5 items that they failed to fix when it was in for repairs in March. Leveling the coach; fixing a bed frame issue; replacing a door seal; electrical issue with the marker lights and replacing a shade motor.
	Evaluation of Service Performed:	This was absolutely the worst experience of any vehicle repairs in my life. The service was abysmal. Total incompetence in not completing the repairs when they were fully aware of time and distance for my appointment. My 2013 Tiffin Allegro 35 QBA is garage kept, immaculate and meticulously maintained. These repairs were of a warranty nature and I was treated like they did not want my coach there at all. I wasted 2 days waiting for repairs that never happened but for the leveling issue. There are not enough words to describe the unconscionable lack of service that pervades this dealership. I gave them 3 separate chances to provide professional repair work and satisfactory customer service and they totally failed at providing the least bit of care. I will NEVER go back there for service and would NEVER recommend them for service of any kind on any unit. I plan on following up with Tiffin in Red Bay and the corporate ownership and management at Lazy Days to voice my complaints and challenge them to do something to improve a completely deplorable service environment. Contacts to my email are welcomed. I know I am not the only RV owner that has been treated this way at this place.

	Work Done on:	Class A - Diesel
	Service Performed:	Preventative maintenance check on generator, Oasis hot water, check all fluids, rear hydraulic level lets not retracting, quote to repair fogged window, "Service Engine Soon" message
	Evaluation of Service Performed:	After 3 years, some recommended services were presented. The Platinum service package that included several things was $2480 which we declined. Then he showed us another list of about services they could do at $200 or more each. So we picked The Oasis hot water service, chassis lube and change all filters as well as check fluids. The jacks only needed to be lubricated so we opted to do that ourselves. They were going to charge us $65 for that evaluation but waived because we had other work done. The fogged window would be $300 so we opted to wait on that. We were also told we needed 4 new rear tires. The quote on Michelin was $3000. Got a quote from a tire dealer who sells the same tires-$300 less. When I mentioned that to the service advisor, he was surprised because he said Lazydays buys in such volume. We needed a replacement clearance light but didn't tell them to install it. $44 was added to the bill for that less than $6 for that and the rest labor. My husband just wanted the lens to install himself. After picking up the motorhome after 9 hours, the "Service Engine Soon" message was still, there. When we called the service advisor we hadn't chosen an option for them to do that so we now have to go somewhere else. Finally, when the technician first looked at the hot water, he said the water reservoir was empty, that we had to keep that maintained" a few days later, it was empty again. It must have a leak but it wasn't detected. I contacted the Lazydays manager with my concerns and received no sympathy. She said I would have had to pay for the diagnostic test for the error message and apologized that that hadn't been presented to me. So $843 later, we still have unresolved issues.

	Work Done on:	Class A - Diesel
	Service Performed:	New house batteries, fridge not cooling, GPS not functioning, oil change, side mirror cameras not working.
	Evaluation of Service Performed:	With out a doubt the WORST place to take your RV for repairs. They have a lot of empty repair bays and I think that is indicative of the level of service you receive. Took our 2011 Expedition in with a list of easy repairs under extended warranty. Was told it would be 3 weeks. 4+ months later, when I went to pick it up it was not even ready. Had asked that it be plugged in and everything ready to check out. Had replaced the house batteries and I didn't want any surprises. Arrived, put thermometer in fridge to check that repair was done correctly and went in to pay. When I came out the batteries were all dead and the fridge was 62 degrees. They had to jump coach and take in back to check. After 2 hours (took lunch) found tech had forgotten to put a ground wire back on after replacing batteries. Was told they really didn't have anyone to trouble shoot the residential style fridges and they should have called in outside vendor. I had been dropped off and had a four-hour drive home. They said they would schedule vendor to come to our house to repair and would reimburse us the $305 for repair. Six weeks after the run around of checks in the mail, we were told it was our problem, since a third-party vendor (they scheduled) had done the repair. They did refund the $60 they charged to initially trouble shoot fridge, which consisted of the tech opening the freezer door and saying everything is fine. Don't go here if you value your sanity and money!!!

	Service Performed:	Several problems missed or lied to that they were fixed during the warranty period. Inverter/charger never worked, black/gray tank level not working, fog light had water in it, area they painted has mis-matched paint, leveling system not adjusted first time. Air leak.
	Evaluation of Service Performed:	VERY, VERY POOR. Not only did they lie to me about having items fixed that were not touched. Inverter not set up after installed. Tank level system not working, still have air leak. Forgot to order parts even when I had another appointment set up which gave them 3 weeks. oh yes, the salesmen that sold the class A forgot I existed when I went to him for help!!

	Evaluation of Service Performed:	Took forever to get work done and not everything was accomplished. Even things that were "fixed" didn't work. Service advisor failed to return calls or emails. Bought coach there and the sales experience was great. Service, not so much. Will NEVER go back.

	Work Done on:	5th Wheel Trailer
	Service Performed:	Hydraulic leak in slide, screw replaced in shower enclosure, microwave/convection oven anchored better to wall, hydraulic jacks not holding, molding on slide buckled, fireplace making noise, TV speakers not working, air conditioners extremely noisy. slide out shelf in appliance garage cracked.
	Evaluation of Service Performed:	We were there 97 days! 97! We're still not fixed. They did fix the shower enclosure by replacing a screw, they installed a new fireplace insert at my insistence, they replaced the TV speakers with new, the microwave/convection oven is now securely anchored to the wall. I was told that I would have to live with the noisy A/C's, that it was just the nature of the beast. After a little research I found that there was a problem that Dometic was aware of and that there was a fix. I brought it to their attention, the part was ordered and my A/C's are quiet again. Their fix for buckled molding was to take it off and replace it with new screws,,,that's fine but they cut a piece off one end so they could move and make new screw holes but now my graphics don't line up right. I got a shrug of the shoulders when I brought it to their attention At my suggestion and insistence someone from Lippert was called in to work on the hydraulic problem. We were not told the day before that we would be in for service so we had to get up every morning and be ready just in case. That's ridiculous, they know their schedule, they could have told the night before if we were scheduled for 8 a.m. I then insisted that we be told if we are scheduled otherwise we would not be ready for an 8 a.m. call. The real kicker was being SQUATTERS! It was not our fault or desire to live in a parking lot for 97 days! We had to make it known that the tech assigned to our rig was not welcome inside anymore because we had to clean up after him.

	Work Done on:	Toy Hauler
	Service Performed:	Checked the water heater and furnace, since the carbon monoxide alarm went off. Sealed the shower at the base by the door due to a leak. Safety chains on hitch ruined by their porter dragging them across the pavement of their entire parking lot. When we picked it up: battery was totally drained due to all accessories being left on, 2" of water in kitchen sink, water and paper sitting in commode.
	Evaluation of Service Performed:	It should be noted that this is a brand new trailer that has been used one time, total of two nights. It seems that everyone is polite, however no one has an answer, always stating they will call someone. I would advise anyone that uses this dealership to bring a bucket of patience since no one seems capable of answering any questions. Good luck and I hope your experience is better than ours.

	Date of Service:	9/20/2012
	Work Done on:	Class A - Diesel
	Service Performed:	Refusal to honor 30 day warranty on used DP and then lied about what was done and did not completely fix work after I was forced to make a $7800 insurance claim for a supposed power surge. They did not fully test the operation of the transfer switch on the coach I purchased from them and when it was plugged into shore power at same time as generator was running the inverter was destroyed from over voltage because the transfer switch was bypassed by previous owner. When I took it back for repair, they claimed I was at fault because improper voltage was applied to coach and I had to turn in an insurance claim for $7800. When I picked up the coach from them after waiting 3 weeks, the transfer switch failed within 2 days. Like other posters, my advisor was Kim Vance. She is very rude and provides as close to no customer service as possible. I stated that the only problem I was having now was with the timer delay board on the switch and that it was only a $30 part from esco and that I had spent an hour with them on the phone troubleshooting the problem and finding what was wrong. All I wanted was the piece shipped to my house so I could replace it. I THOUGHT I was making it easy on them, but I was mistaken. I said that I was not going to waste any more time with them, I will just buy the piece myself.

	Service Performed:	Warranty Work: Basement A/C air leak; Awning Wind Sensor inoperable; Shorted Headlight switch; Dash A/C not working; Serpentine belt/tensioner; Generator gas leak @ fitting; Bend exhaust where hit by debris; Dash Cluster pixels out; Full wash/wax
	Evaluation of Service Performed:	First, it took a long time. We were there about 4 weeks. Now, it wasn't always their fault...the warranty company takes their sweet time to respond, send the inspector, etc. Parts were also slow to arrive, and I chose not to pay to ship heavy items overnight. In these four weeks, they were EXTREMELY helpful, responsive, supportive and asked over and over if there was anything they could do. We were always able to stay in the coach, even when my crazy schedule put me on a flight for a week arriving back near 11PM. I arrived with our coach in a delivery spot, leveled, slides out, A/C on, lights on, and even music playing! Also included for those four weeks - breakfast and lunch, sodas/tea/water, and all hookups in the bays. The techs even offered to hook things up for us. Everything was fixed and is working great. During repair, someone scraped the side of my coach and tore a decal. They were happy to replace the entire decal. I later noticed they hit the mirror too, but only a slight scuff. I provided, in writing, two complaints against the dash A/C. Only one of the complaints was fixed requiring a last- minute Saturday repair by a tech who came out to our delivery site to do the work on his day off. During repair, the tech noticed my serpentine belt was shredded...I never noticed it...so that was fixed just in time. They called the week I was out of town and said my fiberglass roof seal was cracking and needed to be resealed. Reduced rate repair performed at $80/hr. Overall, they treated me like a King. I couldn't ask for more. However, they are very pricey ($120/hr), and for that price I have to expect perfection, which I didn't receive. Repair bill was near $6000, some of which covered by warranty. Warranty company challenged some of the number of hours and they adjusted. I challenged some as well and they adjusted there, too. You need to be savvy to make sure you are charged a fair amount. My disappointment was with their detail department. I paid nearly $700 for a wash/wax (it started cheaper, then they said they needed more time due to 'oxidation'). When I went to my coach with the slides out, they didn't bother to wash OR wax the slides. They also didn't bother to wash the slide awnings. There was wax over spray in many places. I took it back over there on a Saturday and they touched up the areas where I specifically had to say 'redo this', and 'redo that.' No eye for detail in the detail department, I suggest avoiding it. NOTE: The detail department is not Lazy Days, it's another company.

	Evaluation of Service Performed:	Poor. Toilet flange should have been replaced along with down pipe but technician sealed it from inside with sealant. Window was pulled apart and cleaned but was etched and they still used it and the coach was under factory warranty and Lazy Days 30 day warranty for a used 2009 coach. The work on the toilet down pipe should not have taken more than an hour but the coach was in the bay for six hours with nothing being done. Told the service manager to either work on it or take it from the bay so I could go elsewhere for service. Service advisor's are worthless as they don't return your calls. Was happy with the sales department but the service department ruined our experience of getting a new coach.

	Service Performed:	Refrigerator and generator inspection. This was a drop-in service call, as we were staying at Hillsborough River State Park, when we noticed the refrigerator was not cooling well (freezer was working though). While talking to service tech, I mentioned that the genset was hard starting and smelled rich. After FOUR HOURS of waiting, service tech tells me they found a gross leak in the generator fuel filter/line connection. They applied Teflon tape, and considered it fixed. The refrigerator, he said, was only cooling to 47�F, and that was a sign the cooling system was going bad. When asked if they could check pressures or temperatures to conclusively rule something in/out, he said no, as it was a sealed system. He asked if he should order the $2000 part. I said no. $60 charge for 30 min on refrigerator $60 charge for 30 min on genset Total w/taxes and other fees $155.
	Evaluation of Service Performed:	Upon inspecting the refrigerator, the light cover was off, the "Ambient Above 50�" switch was in the off position (wrong since it was 90�), the "On during Summer" switch was in the off position (wrong, as it was summer). The thermistor on the cooling fin was all the way at the top (where I had put it) - indicating they had not moved or inspected it. On the generator, the cover was not on all the way (the cover reads "DO NOT RUN GENERATOR WITHOUT THIS COVER COMPLETELY INSTALLED - WILL RESULT IN OVERHEATING AND DAMAGE). The 50A breakers under the cover were off, so nothing in the cabin worked until I turned them on. And best of all, the generator STILL started hard, and stalled out after about 10 minutes of running. In the end, it was not only a waste of $155 - as the problems were not resolved - but it was a complete waste of a day. I will NOT go back.

	Service Performed:	Slide awning mechanism repair-I told them the slide cover was not retracting properly and needed to be tensioned because the metal cover didn't roll over the top as it should when retracted. They replaced the spring and tensioned it. Work order shows "troubleshoot replace spring test slide topper". When I got it back, I had the same problem. I returned it and they confirmed the problem still existed, but that they fixed the spring as requested, and this is a new problem that will cost an estimated $500 to replace a bent slide tube.
	Evaluation of Service Performed:	After spending $451 (labor is $120/hr), they failed to fix the problem and wanted another estimated $500 to fix it right.

On the delivery date I noticed the oil was changed but none of the filters, driving out on the Interstate trying to use the signal light, I wound up with the lever in my hand which was just stuck on there. Lazy Days also delivered the coach with one inside dually flat. while in service someone removed a front hubcap and they would not even make good for that. I am really disgusted with this company and will never do business with them again.

	Service Performed:	Replace cracked windshield, replace step motor and replace hydraulic leveling and slide pump.
	Evaluation of Service Performed:	They did do a good job of the windshield, it was clean when finished and it has not leaked. We bought this motorhome from Lazy Days and also got their warranty so I thought we would get better service by having the repairs done there. Wrong, they wanted me to pay for three of hours of labor which the warranty co would not cover so when I said no they wanted $240 for the inspection. Then they dropped 1 1/2 hours off as an offer which I also said no to. We got the inspection down to 1 hour and I went to RV Mobile Service II just 3 miles away and got the work done at no extra cost. I will NEVER go back to Lazy Days for service now I have found RV Mobile Service II.

	Service Performed:	Following our terrible experience at Lazy Days when we purchased this new RV last year, we said we would never return. However, they assured us (on various forums) that things were much better now. As Lazy Days have workshops for everything from engine to cabinet to full paint shop, and we had a wide range of items to fix we decided to give them another chance. So, we booked the RV in for its final warranty work. As soon as we arrived there were problems. After an initial surge of activity we spent nearly a week with nothing done (we were full-timing in this RV). We had to keep chasing them, so much so that I went in search of the senior management to get things done. Lazy Days not only took forever to perform an average standard of work, they even managed to put a chip in the paintwork larger than the one we took to have fixed, they damaged the window seal and chipped the paint when replacing the windshield they wrongly fitted last year. I could go on and on about the problems but would suggest (if it is allowed) that you search the term Lazy Days at rvforum.net
	Evaluation of Service Performed:	Terrible. They actually caused more damage to the RV than it went in to have fixed.

	Service Performed:	I had appointment last Friday for Lazy Days to replace the rear hydraulic synchronizing cylinder for the passenger side bedroom slide which had been leaking since delivery in September on an 07 DP. They promptly brought the coach to the service bay where I gave the two technicians the part and the installation instructions shipped directly to me from HWH at no cost. They immediately went to work without reading or following the instructions which I read several times myself. They failed to cap the lines upon removal of the old cylinder, uncapped the replacement cylinder well before they were ready to reattach the lines and failed to bleed to system prior to extending the room for the first time. This led to the rear portion of the slide extending 8-10 inches with zero movement in the front causing it to firmly wedge in the opening. All of their attempts to remedy the situation failed, including manually forcing the synchronizing cylinder ram back into the cylinder with a very large vise grip. They wanted to, but I would not allow them to release the spring tension on the slide topper and remove the wood fascia on the inside of the slide to gain access to the actuating cylinders to detach them from the slide. I called HWH for guidance on properly remedying the situation without causing any further damage to the coach or requiring additional dis-assembly. The lead technician very reluctantly talked with HWH technical support which faxed them the necessary information for the repair to proceed. The work group foreman, shop foreman and service manager were NOT pleased with my indirect observation of their repair work from the entrance of the service bay and insisted that I return to and stay in the service waiting area. An hour and a half later, they returned the coach a mess but working as I had dropped it off. There were no signs of damage on the exterior or interior of the slides, only several oil spots on the bedspread which they readily agreed to dry clean. Oil is still leaking from the synchronizing cylinder and the pump, which did not leak prior to the repair. The work order had only 2 hours of labor on it, 3 quarts of oil, shop incidentals and the dry cleaning notation. It took 2-3 technicians at least 5 hours (9:30 - 4:30) from start to finish to execute the repair. Prior to the repair, HWH technical support informed me that the repair is relatively straight forward and could be performed by just about any service center in a couple of hours. I am very pleased that I observed the repair taking place and I am confident that I saved myself a lot of frustration and time by stopping them when I did. As side note, another brand new 07 DP owner who purchased their coach from Lazy Days in September was there having the inverter control panel replaced. Lazy Days insisted the work be carried out in a service bay. While backing a 5th wheel into an adjacent bay they bumped the rear driver side of his coach with the 5th wheel leaving a lengthy scratch through 3 colors of the paint. They were more than willing to take his coach to the body shop once the paint arrived for 3 days of painting. This did not fit into his plans or schedule. When I left Lazy Days, I was not aware of any other compensation other than they were very sorry and they would take care of the repair.
	Evaluation of Service Performed:	Warranty work on a brand new coach. 8 hours round trip and 3 weeks waiting for an appointment to have the work performed. All inconvenience and NO value in the work Work was unsatisfactory, problem was not corrected while they created additional problems.

They only fixed around 50% of them, but charged them all under warranty.

	Service Performed:	We had a problem with the coach's engine dieing whenever we hit a bump in the road. They spent three hours dropping the gas tank and prepping to replace a 'dead' in-tank gasoline pump. During the process of dropping the tank, they found a "chaffed and pinched" wiring harness. They taped up the harness and replaced the ECM fuse. All fixed...NOT! I found the problem several days later. It was a chaffed ECM harness located at the air conditioner compressor mounting bracket.
	Evaluation of Service Performed:	I've never been treated in such a rude manner as I was treated at Lazy Days. Their customer reps, their techs, their sale people all have attitude problems. Three hours on the shop floor for the privilege of spending time at Lazy Days was quite the education. We learned we'd never go back there again.

	Service Performed:	26 repairs of misc. factory defects under warranty on new Fleetwood Flair Coach plus tire imbalance
	Evaluation of Service Performed:	6 times we took our new RV back to Lazy Days (where we purchased it)-- so consider this as 6 separate reviews. Each time, Lazy said they completed the work but failed to repair numerous items on the detailed list. After the 6th 'service' trip and Lazy Days being unable to fix a severe 42 mph imbalance, we realized Lazy Days service lacked the desire, or ability or honesty to do what they promise. And they promised every time to take care of you, treat you right and do repairs properly. My advice: never trust them. P.S. Lazy Days is moving their service dept. away from sales; I'd guess they don't want the RV owners there for service talking to the new customers.
