If you have a good Freightliner Service Location would you please post the service location ONLY.
Service Centers that will cater to the RVer without a hassle.

Spent a week at Freightliner of Arizona in Chandler 1230 South Akimel Lane Chandler, AZ 85226. They treated us great and worked on the coach outside the bay so that we could stay in it. Only drawback was no sewer hookup so one week was pushing it.

Rush truck center in Tyler Texas.
http://www.rushtruckcenters.com/Tyler/default.aspx

they cater to mostly OTR but have a nice lounge and were very eager to get us taken care of.


I beleive by their actions they are somehow in cooperation with the freightliner service http://www.freightlinertrucks.com/fr...?sc=TX&id=ADID
center up on I-20 just before the Hwy 69 north Tyler exit.

In fact when i called the 800 freightliner folks, they gave me the info for both places and offered to secure a service appointment on my behalf, which i found to be more than helpful.
I ended up using Rush because he was not backlogged at the time.
I scheduled an arrival time and within 30 minutes of my arrival they were working on my coach.

the facility is very clean and the techs were very professional and cognizant of RV needs and familiar to what i would call normal rver concerns (clean feet and hands inside the coach, no smoking, latched access doors when done)
they do not have hookups or a campground area.

Factory Service Center in Gaffney, S.C. certainly meets that criteria.

Bay Diesel in Red Bay Alabama close to Tiffin Motorhome factory is one of the best places I have seen to work on drive system, they know what they are doing and don't look like deer in headlights when you ask a question. Change exhaust manifold for me in 2.5 hours. Real good work.

FL Oasis Center in Tolleson, Az FSWAZ - Tolleson Location

This is the only place I get chassis work done anymore. They have been great to work with.

I have read many words of praise for the Gaffney SC Service Center so I phoned them to set up an initial service appointment for my RV. I had just purchased a 2006 Dynamax Dynaquest on a Freightliner M2-106 chassis. You can imagine my irritation when I was informed that they would not work on my vehicle because they "did not manufacture my chassis at their Gaffney location"! I was quite surprised. I said to them "what if I brought a Chevrolet Malibu to a Chev dealer and they told me they do not work on THAT MODEL Chevrolet!". I argued and was quite forceful but in the end they still said NO. I really am pissed at Gaffney and Freightliner in general.

On a trip out west we stayed in Coburg, OR. The Freightliner Svc Ctr was 3 miles from the CG. The did a great job for a routine service/maintenance.
