It's not just camping world. Quite honestly if we made a choice to fulltime based on reviews of equipment, dealerships and especially service..….I wouldn't.
I understood going into this that any assurances I received from the salesman about the care and service were utter **** and that anything I needed done would take an eternity.....and they have lived up to it.
Being a long time Harley rider I am used to horrible customer service and high prices, though I must admit the RV industry males me appreciate Harley Davidson.
Take pictures, file down the edges so it is safe and either fix it yourself or wait to have it fixed.......either way camp and enjoy life.

Guess that is one reason I don't have a potato bike.

Doesn't sound the same in here though.

Same pitch on anything you buy.

Camping World will not pay to have it fixed, and unless the damage is noted when the trailer was delivered from the factory to Camping World, Jayco will take the position it was damaged on the dealer's lot after delivery.
Cost to repair probably less than $200. Any residential cabinet and counter top place can do this one in their sleep; it is not RV specific.
Two lessons here: 1. a salesman's job is to make the sale so anything they say means nothing, and 2. never accept any product unless it is 100% to your satisfaction.
As a point of interest, when the unit is delivered, it is inspected thoroughly by receiving. They make note of any damage to the camper. If the damage is on the exterior it is "driver damage" (the guy that towed the unit to the dealership) and he/she is responsible for paying for the repair. If there is damage to the exterior that clearly is not driver damage, such as delamination, the dealership can refuse to accept the unit, or the factory can pay that dealership to make the repairs. Interior damage is noted and reported to the factory and the factory pays the dealership to make the repairs. This is all done prior to the unit ever being made available for sale. In all likelihood, that dealership in New Mexico has already been paid by Jayco to perform the repair. By filing it as a warranty claim, the dealer is able to double charge the factory for the same repair.
