- If roadside assistance is unable to fix the issue there and then, they will arrange a tow truck to transport your motorhome to a local garage or to the nearest dealer.
- If your truck is still under the manufacturer's warranty, your dealer will take care of the issue if found to be a warranty issue.
- If not under warranty, always get an estimate or quote so you are clear with what you are paying for.
