Best Dealer for Warranty Service in Tampa Bay Area

[11595gulf]

I have a 2011 Winnebago that I purchased out of state, but live in Tampa Bay Area. I need some warranty work done and am considering area dealers. Of course LazyDays is the most convenient, as is Harbersons, but I have no experience with either. I would appreciate any advice on dealers within 2-3 hours of Tampa. My repairs are fairly minor, shouldn't require parts. I hear these stories of owners spending days or weeks waiting for repairs, or being shunned because they didn't buy their vehicle at the serving dealer. I am a newbie so I have no idea what to expect, but have learned so much from this forum, so hoping to tap others' experience. Thanks!

Guido,
Lazy Days will get the job done. They are a very large operation and waiting times can be very long. They have a very comfortable waiting area.

Sun Coast in Orlando can also get the work done, but they are over an hour away. I have used both and would use them again.

We have used RV MeDIC on Busch BLDV several times. Johnny owns the company they do very good work. we wouldn't consider having work on our RV done any where else. Prompt service, resonable prices and they fix things, not just try to sell you a replacement!

If your living in your coach, Lazydays might be your better choice. They allow you to live in your coach when they are not working on it, ie overnight. When they are working on it they have a comfortable lounge area and a cafeteria that serves a modest lunch (no choices only one offering). If you don't like what they offer you can walk accross the parking lot to Cracker Barrel for your meal.

I will admit I purchased my coach from then. It did take a little while getting some agreed on repairs done, but they did finish to my satification.

I recently had a problem with my kicthen slide not opening properly. Took it to them and had it repaired under extended warrenty. No hassel, no problem.

If you check posts on Lazydays you'll find both good and bad. So far I've got to rate them as good in my experance.

Their are large with a good parts and labor supply, so chances of getting service completed in a reasonable time should be good.

Would I go there again? Yes.

Would I go to Harbersons? Yes.

Will someone say something aginst LD? Just wait.

I had a pleasant experience with Coachworx in Clearwater. Not sure if they'll do Winnie warranty work but their lot is full of Prevost.
