In March of this year, we bought a used, 2004 Tiffin Allegro 32 BA on the Workhorse chassis. On just our second short trip, the Allison transmission suffered a catastrophic failure. Even though we were the second owners, and the unit was out of warranty, Allison Transmission has agreed to pay $2,000 toward the cost of installing a rebuilt transmission. We are extremely pleased with their offer, and it is good to know that Allison stands behind their product and values their customers.

jahue: First let me say WELCOME to iRV2.com You've found the right place for info about all things RV.
In your first post, quoted above, something does not "sound" right. The Allison warranty is for 5 years, with various mileages based on which fluid was used. Can you provide more specifics about your situation? ED

My '01 Dutch Star with the 3000MH tranny came with a 5 year unlimited milage warranty.

My '05 MT Aire has the same warranty.
