how to locate repair tech

How do I go about finding a technician to come to our location to address repairs? The closest dealership is 2 hours away, it's season in the northeast, so getting an appointment is nearly impossible.

I drove to Camping World in NH --- bad customer service and can't imagine what it would be like to have service done there. I have seen that Cold Springs RV has good reviews, will try them on Tuesday. But still hoping that I would be able to get someone out to the site.

Any assistance would be great!

If in a campground I usually ask there and have had good luck so far.

Some advertise themselves on Craigslist.

Some dealers also offer onsite service. Make a few calls to local dealers.

If you're in a campground the best choice is to talk to the office and many times the service folks will put up a business card on the bulletin board or give to the office. If that fails, find someone in the campground that seems to stay at least a month or so or a long-termer. He might know of someone. Another possibility is to stop at any vehicle service place near you and ask if they know of anyone doing RV service. Usually, they're pretty available. Good luck!

Agree on checking with campground host. Larger campgrounds will be dealing with guest issues quite often, and will have a good handle on good techs through guests leaving positive feedback.
