The RV has had a thorough inspection before it was shipped to the dealer. However, to insure your complete

satisfaction, the dealer must perform an inspection of various components and operations based on a

pre-delivery inspection list provided. You should take the opportunity to cover the operation of all components

of the RV with your dealer. This will help make you familiar with the RV and its operation, while at the same

time providing you with the assurance of everything being in proper working order. A road test by the dealer

should be included as part of the pre-delivery inspection. The dealer can then check for and correct any

steering problems before you take delivery of the RV. After this road test has been completed, front end

alignment and/or vibrations will not be covered as part of the new vehicle warranty.

This RV has been designed for short term and recreational use. It was not designed to be used as a permanent 

dwelling or as a rental vehicle. If you intend to use the RV as a permanent dwelling or rental vehicle, it could

cause the carpet, drapes, upholstery, and interior surfaces to deteriorate prematurely. This premature wear

caused by long term or permanent residency may, under the terms of the new vehicle warranty, be considered

abnormal and abusive and COULD REDUCE YOUR WARRANTY COVERAGE.

Should a problem develop for which you need assistance, contact your dealer. If the problem is automotive,

the motorhome should be taken either to a chassis manufacturer service center or dealer. If the problem is with 

an appliance, check the appliance manufacture’s information supplied with the RV for information regarding

warranty work and/or location of appliance service centers.

If, when traveling, you experience a breakdown or problem while your RV is under warranty, and an authorized 

service center or dealer is not available, if possible, contact the dealer you purchased your RV from, or a

Mandalay Technical Service Advisor at (866) 919-4444 before having any service work performed. By

notifying them, you will know what is covered under the terms of the warranty, as well as making them aware of 

your problem.

 

NOTE:

 Any parts that require replacement, that are covered under the terms of the warranty should be

retained and returned to your dealer along with your invoice.  This way, they are able to check what has

occurred, and also make sure you are properly reimbursed.

Repairs made without prior authorization may be subject to denial or partial reimbursement. Modifications

made to the vehicle without proper authorization can result in reduction or loss of warranty coverage. Please

make sure to contact your dealer before making such changes.
