💥RV DEALER CLAIMED THE RV INSPECTOR WOULDN'T FIND 1 THING WRONG IN THIS BRAND-NEW RV. HE WAS WRONG!

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 10 ก.ย. 2024
- 😮The RV dealer told our customer he didn’t need an RV Inspection on this brand-new RV, there was no way an RV inspector would find anything wrong!
🤬When it rains, it pours! AND LEAKS!! BOY was the dealer WRONG!
🧐THE DEALER SAID: “We welcome your RV inspectors. This is a brand-new RV; they won’t find anything wrong with it.”
😨This NEW Montana High Country 331RL was parked on their RV lot for probably 8 months or so. What can be wrong you ask? Isn’t that our typical reaction as well, while we are considering a new RV? Why has this RV not been purchased?
😮From the seller’s point of view, you are totally out of your money, and your mind if you are considering hiring an independent RV inspector. We’ll stand corrected the day we’ll go through an RV without a flaw…! We don’t see that happening in the near future!
👉Follow us on this journey bringing us to uncharted territories for a new RV.

If I were a RV manufacturer I would hire Blue OX to check each unit leaving the factory, imagine having a “Blue OX Certified “ sticker on the side
That's the thing, they are not going to spend money, reducing their profit margin, and we couldn't inspect 10 a day !!
Also some of what they find has to do with the unit sitting like water intrusion. Probably harder to catch everything right off the line if you can’t see behind every seal.
You have a great point also 👍
As a retired Certified Home Inspector, I've also inspected quite a few mobile homes over the years. When buying an RV or Mobile Home, always hire a Certified NRVIA RV Inspector. No excuses! Never hire an Inspector that the RV Dealer suggest or refers you to. Get your own. Make sure they are a NRVIA Certified RV Inspector. Again, no excuses!! Great job Pierre & Laurel.
Thanks 😁
How dare you perform your job in such an excellent manner !!🥳🥳R V dealers should be shaking in their boots if they know Blue Ox is on the way.Keep on keeping on. Be safe,healthy and happy.🥰🌹
Thanks Charlene...that's why we tell people; just say your inspection team is coming ...not Blue Ox 🤣
@@blueoxontherun9188 Hmmm.I would want the scoundrels to know the best of the best is on the way.🥰
My dealer told my Pierre and Laurel opened up a can of worms when they did our inspection. I said thats what I paid them to do. Worth every penny for the inspection to know what I bought best thing I did after buying my rig.
We just expose our findings to protect our friends from accepting a flawed vehicle 🙂
As a retired home inspector I'd include an infra-red camera in your tool box. They are pricey and it takes some training to understand what the camera is actually showing you. It can quickly identify the source of moisture that you can verify with moisture meter, your eyes, and your hands. You can also use it to check HVAC output or air leaks around openings like windows, doors, roof A/C, etc.
Thanks for the tips 😀 already asking authorization from my boss to get a FLIR one 😉...it's in my cart ...shhhhh 😁
Mums the word. FLIR is good brand to have. Ask your boss to set you up up with an infrared instruction to keep from getting a false reading. It's not X-ray vision.BTW, also useful for checking electrical. @@blueoxontherun9188
I've been studying those and trials for a while...one needs to understand structure and materials in order to NOT get false interpretations, right ?
@blueoxontherun9188 Yes. For example, IR can't "see" thru glass. Have to understand the "physics" involved with IR. Time of day and year can affect what it tells you. A "cold" spot can just as well show a hole letting cold air in as it does with wet spots. That's why u confirm with a humidity device.
.
This one sure had a farm country feel.....Even came with it's own duck pond.
As a practising ham radio operator, CW in this instance should be
...---...👍
🤣🤣
Bust! Inspections are 100% prudent & required. People like you & those of us that use our brains like you all do to hold the shysters accountable are the ONLY hope this crooked industry will ever get better.
I would have walked when they gave me $hit about having my inspectors use their own electric and water! Shame on the dealer! Def a BUST!! Love ya guys!
They've just tried this on 2 customers of ours lately...surprisingly, they'll make an inspection this one time for you 🤣 after they've threatened them to go elsewhere 🙄 😉
"You won't find anything" L-o-Freaking-L. Keep exposing the liars out there. As a side note. When I purchased a new 2015 F-150 I went thru six (6) of them on the lot before I found one that was acceptable (quality issues with one after another). I should've walked to another brand but I had use of Ford's x-Plan & was looking for a no-fuss/no-muss sales experience type buy. Ended up being a mistake b/c the one I thought was good ended up having a # of issues in 1st 30,000mi. Your customers, if it comes to it, should be ok with possibility of having to find another model camper &/or another manufacturer if the universe is telling them they need to.
Oh my, I guess this one is a BUST. So three of the same units had water before the rig was sold....not good. Another great video, showing exactly why having ANY rv inspected is worth the costs.
Hope people are taking notes 😁
With Camping Worlds reputation being what it is, I would NEVER even look at anything at any Camping World. Keep up the good work. Keep saving people thousands of $$$$$$$.
We appreciate you 🙏
The bottom of that pantry would have been hard to mess !
The service y'all provide is so valuable
LOL, bring your own water and electric! These fingers touch everything. 😲😲🤣🤣You guys do such a great job!! Love your videos!
Thanks Katrina 🙂🤙
I bet this one had water intrusion, but was left here to see if you couldn't find the issue. Thanks for what you do. Don
Just having the dealer stating that they don't allow outside inspectors is a no-deal for me.
It should be fir anyone right??
I haven't seen you do it, but do use an electrical receptical tester to check for polarity, proper grounding and test, the gfci? If so, could you cover that in the next episode. Thank you for doing your part to protect rv buyers.
Every single outlets inside, basement and outside. Even USB! Did you expect any less 🤔 🤣
@blueoxontherun9188 Honestly, I felt silly asking, but I hadn't noticed it in any video
I'll forgive you this time 🤣🤣
Busted! Nice work!… Wonder how many New Rigs out there have something Major wrong with them! Thousands and Thousands! Customers should bring their own Contract to the Closing Table and present it to them last requesting the Dealer to allow the Customer to Hire an “Outside Inspector”. Mr. Dealer, Sign it or we Walk! And if it Fails the Inspection, we get our Deposit Back Immediately!!! Bam! Customers Money, Customer’s Rules!
This is what we preach when people ask or reach out for information.
It is your money, your rules!
Why are people bowing in front of dealerships rules? They wouldn't do that from a private seller would they ?
Learned a lot from you guys... this will be a bust for my wife and I / we will hire an inspector when ready to buy our new RV!
After watching all these videos I would only consider buying an airstream travel trailer or an Oliver trailer which is fiberglass if it’s not leaking at time of purchase that doesn’t guarantee that it’s not going to happen in the near future I think they will always have leaks with slides
You are right! The risk of leaking is always present if one doesn't maintain his or hers RV....whatever brand!
The RV industry makes the used car industry look like good guys! What part of the country was this inspection done?
VA
Bust. I have watched a lot of your videos and find them very informative. Learned a lot from your inspections but if I was to purchase any RV I would have you inspect it first. Keep up the great work and thank you.
We were lucky enough to hire you to inspect the first XLR that had water damage and also soft floors. You then inspected number 2 XLR number 3 XLR all with the same water damage wood rot and spongy floors. We went to a campers inn to look at a unit before we had you inspect number 4. When we walked up to the unit it had a yellow sign on the door that said bio hazard. As you can imagine I asked the sales person what's up With this unit. His answer was oh just a little water leak. I stopped by the service department on our way out and they said that unit was taped shut because of Black Mold. There were willing to take us in and sell us that unit. We then move on to number 5 during the walk through I noticed that the floor was very soft in the middle. Of course don't worry about. We can take care of it after you buy it. On to number 6. With the help of Pierre and Laurel fingers crossed we have a good unit. Anyone thinking about buying an RV new or used please hire an inspector. Pierre and Laurel we cannot thank you too enough for saving us from the money pit times 5. Until I had the pleasure of meeting you too I never knew what the comment except C4BO.
I'm glad you finally found one that fits your criteria 😆.
Good thing you are not "THE" reference in the shopping experience 😉😀 Normal people would have abandon quicker than you guys! 😉 I'm glad you finally got to enjoy RVing 😁
Thanks guys it would be a bust no way would I touch that.
I think it is very important to hire an inspector
Bust for me! I wish you guys had been around 15 years ago when I purchased my coach it was a disaster, two years of negotiating and getting parts, etc. a home inspection and the real estate business is just as important as a RV inspection in the camping world. No pun intended. Thomyt
1 RVer at the time! If we can get the message through, it could be awesome 👌
That's the only way to fight Goliath in my book!
We met you guys in Hershey. Great people and very friendly. Keep up the good work.
Thanks again 😁
It would be a bust to us and know wouldn't see the water problem. It is scary that this RV will be sold.
Sally, it will be sold to blind people with eyes only for the tire shine...
Extra warranty = extra service headaches ...
Bust. We will be hiring an inspector for our new rv. We didn't with our first, but we were only weekenders...now transitioning to full time
Please do 🙏
Make sure you find yourself a good team.
If we can help, feel free to reach out ...www.blueoxrvinspection.com
I was already on your site. We will sign up when we look for one
Have you done a video on inspecting a Riverstone? I would love to see it.
I know I’m definitely getting an RV inspection when I buy my next motor home. I definitely believe this is money well invested, considering the amount of money you spend on an RV. Keep up the good work!
Thanks 😁
no jealousy just respect....i am thinking twice about buying one now/// thanks again and happy holidays. i never notice anything the first time ; relationships or otherwise :)
🙂😁😘
Salut Pierre, I can understand why in Europe the slide-out concept is almost absent from their RV market: it is impossible to produce a watertight slide-out, if it doesn't leak brand new, it will eventually leak because of road vibrations. Many don't know that many european manufacturers offer up to a 10 year warranty against water intrusion, you have to have it inspected every year to maintain the warranty.

All the tests data is stored in a global data base, whoever does the inspection.
They live in a different world than us, in North America.
Bon visionnement!
Definitely 2 different world !
On se comprend!
i thank you for what you do, you guys have taught me a lot, i live in my rv and you showed me what to look for before the problem starts,,, your doing a great job,,,,
Glad if it helps 🙂
When will consumers quit asking for slides! They are nothing but a problem waiting to happen. I would love a Super C with no slides, but only choice are custom built units like racers use, way out of my league.
I hear you 🙄
Glad to see you come to Virginia !!!
CW did actually supply the water😮
Good one😂
🤣🤣🤣
Dang. You guys are super skilled but this one didn’t take any moisture meter or rocket surgeon skill to immediately spot that if you just look. Yet the salesperson thought they’d find nothing? Wow. You’d think anyone in the RV industry could spot super obvious problems.
You’d think a dealer would spot that stuff when they attempt to deliver this thing, and refuse it and send it back to the factory.
You'd think so 🙄
What you guys do is a must with any RV no matter the price range of the Rig. My wife boss purchased a Prevost and it stayed in the shop for almost his first year of ownership. Stuff that I'm sure you guys would have caught like lights not working and the slides getting stuck. New or used, particularly after C-19, I would highly recommend an inspector. CW, what a joke!! Thanks for sharing as we have shared your video.. 💯👍🏽 Herbie, Mary, & Peanut
Thanks Herbie! Was nice to meet you in Hershey...looking for more connections to get to know you and Mary...Peanut as well 😀 🤣
@@blueoxontherun9188 That would be awesome!! We love hanging out with good people doing good things that benefit us all... Keep on shinning!!!
Bust! unless they drop the price 25-30 thousand.
This is major IMHO
The very first problem was that it was from Camping World. Why would anyone do business with them??
We bought our used classA diesel here in VA from CW and their service department is the worst.....
I'm sorry for your bad experience 😔
Bust. Run for the hills!
Nope! Moving on. Of course I would never buy anything from C W. And yes I will be employing an inspector
There's people that sign deals at inside rv shows they could be in for a word of hurt . I will be hiring a certified rv inspector weather buying new or used !!
We had 2 customers this week that reached out 😵😭 bought at the show. Paid every penny on site...then called us 🙄...
No need for an inspection after you've giving up your only power of leverage $$ ...bust !
They were discouraged falling for sales tactics.
Great job on finding the water problem you guys do well together
Thanks 😁 😊
Every inspection I watch you do makes me not want to buy any RV.😕
We are a tool to help you avoid hassles basically 😉
Why wouldn't you personally hire and train inspectors? You could assist many more people in making a decision.
You must have a 6th sense 🤔 🤣
I hope when I get mine inspected that it has been raining.
was just looking at a "newish" rv yesterday. or some reason. all around the coach someone has applied silicone to everything. i say bust on that. unit looks great. but the wrong material in use. pulse has a set of 4 year old china bombs.
Smart man 🙂
I will never buy one without hiring you guys. WOW
The first mistake is dealing with CW. Many other reputable dealers out there.
Right ??
Love your videos. Was hoping we would see you at Hershey but we didn't...we are definitely planning on an inspector when we purchase...we are liking Brinkley, Palomino Pause, or Airstream...we have been doing our research and think that they are about the best quality one can find these days other than a Living Vehicle (out of range $).
Feel free to reach out anytime www.blueoxrvinspection.com
sneaky water intrusion. not buy.
Good job again!
Good advice
Really professional work! Thanks for sharing. My question is what is the name brand of your moisture tester? I would like to have one just to test my RV. Thanks again
Amazon R&D
Thanks very much! Keep the videos coming
Most definitely a big BUST!
Bust for sure!
A bust 😢 I may not notice the water 💦
CW forgot to mention that they exclusively use inspectors that are blind
You're right...we're blinded by the shiny objects when we go there 🤣
That's a bust for sure!
These things are absolute piles of garbage. I have a 2003 Safari built by Monaco in Oregon and there is no way I would ever buy one of these piles of garbage.
It's 😔 sad
Bust would not have found the issue
This the rv that gad my eye on!!!Lets seeee
it would be a bust for me
Me too !
There's that word again....Water.
Bust ! You two are top notch!!!!!
It’s a bust for me.
Bust!!!
Camping World doing what they do…Rip off customers!
This is a BUST!!!!!
BUST!
Bust! I would hire you on my next RV.
OK, here's the thing. Is the dealer responsible for serious manufacturing defects? I don't know if a finger pointing ☝️ towards "CW" is actually appropriate. I don't even know 😢 why the retailer continues ordering this leaky house of cards that seems to be a result of bad engineering. From what I understand lately dealers are so fed up with putting this junk up for sale because they're the ones getting the flack and being called out when it's really not their fault.
I understand your point, they still have a choice tho...they just have to stop accepting such "defects" and selling them....they have no issues knowingly passing the torch to the customers 🤔😁
What is the model of the water/humidity sensor? Thanks
Amazon R&D
Camping world is a absolute joke … I give them the benefit of the doubt and like clock work they fail to do the right thing or anything at all.. we bought a 2022 aHeartland fuel 287 from Jacksonville CW of Florida. Back last Oct. unfortunately they are a dedicate a Dealer to the Fuel brand 🤬🤬🤬. So we bought it, did not get it expected only because I’ve been in maintenance 35 years, and I am ocd like you’d never seen. Went for my “walk” through with my sales guy.. that lasted 10 mins. Then He said ok let’s go do paper work, nope I said I will do my own walk through.. 5 hrs later a list of 62 things wrong. Including slide out was out of time big time, half the lap sealant on roof nonexistent, propane side of hot water heater didn’t function, bulb seal on outside back of slide was gone. Power stabilizers wouldn’t go down, underneath sink one of the supply line fittings dripped on hot side, bathrom both hot. & cold sides leaks from faucet underneath. Emergency breakaway for breaks was never hooked up.. and so on and So on. Have them my list said fox it all or I’ll call elsewhere. They said let’s do the paper work and I could bring it back to get fixed… NEVER I MEAN NEVER DO THIS, once you pull out with you rv it’s your mess.. warranties are about as good as the paper their printed on.. especially with Camping World. 4 days later I came back all was fixed and ready to go..
now heartland warranty department is amazing, I have had to replace both faucets again, they sent them right to my house. I don’t want CW touching my unit. Unit has been amazing, we full time in it and we love it. We do have 2 dehumidifiers moisture is #1 rv killer keep it dry on the inside. .. if they don’t let you get it expected before signing papers, or allow you to do the inspection with your own time frame .. walk away fast…. Fox everything before signing mad leaving with it..
That's the only way 🙂🤙
Did you ever identify or suspect a source for the water leak?
Rear window left open I presumed...rain came hitting down over and over in the rear slightly opened window 😉
Definitely a bust!!
i love watching your videos but are there any brands in 5th wheels that you would recommend. also when you do find issues are they taken care of. in other words if i wanted to buy a unit and have you inspect it, delivery isnt taken until its fixed. am i correct
Delivery and last signature on your documents is fulfilled when everything has been addressed...the minute you sign, you lost all power of leverage 🙂
Bust!
Sadly very big BUST ❤❤❤❤❤ WELL DONE !!
Pierre, what the hell are you cranking about? You wanted water, CW gave you a camper full of water. You folks are just never satisfied.
Ask and you will receive they say !
I guess you're right, I'm going to tone it down 🤣🤣
definitely need an inspector but need a good vetted one at that. I have no idea for the life of me how CW is the largest out there. They just don't seem to trustworthy. Trying to be nice here. ha
CW is not the problem....buyers and repetitive buyers are the culprit. Every time someone buys an RV without an inspection, they are cultivating this industry for" no accountability required to sell a product " 🙄.
We are creating this IMHO
Is that a full time rated fifth wheel? The customer might want to do a little more research.
Lets do research on "Full Time" rated RVs by the way...you'll be surprised what it really means!
Check one of Josh at Bish's video about the subject a month or so ago 🤔
@@blueoxontherun9188 I'll check it out. Having said that, if I were looking for a unit to live in, it would need to be higher quality and above average insulation, including insulated slide outs, solid, real wood .. durable materials meant to stand up to every day use. It would not be cheaply made and lacking the best insulation the industry has to offer. I think we can all agree that, overall, quality is at an all time low. Otherwise you guys wouldn't be finding so many problems.
BUST ! C4BO ! 😎
Yep, a bust! C4BO
What is the going rate for a quality inspector?
A good team should run $1100 to $1500 depending on the unit
Very cool. Now I know what to budget for an inspection if I buy an RV. Thank you!@@blueoxontherun9188
Yes only a fool wouldn’t hire an inspector!
Definitely a bust! 😊
Definitely 🙂

Complete bust. Your videos should be required viewing for any new RVer. I may have been late to the party, but I won't be fooled again!

Total bust
