NOTHING had been done. It has been HOT the last few weeks and the guys felt that there was an &#8216;odour&#8217; in the rig so they couldn&#8217;t work in it. I went in, opened windows and air hatches, and 10 minutes later, the &#8216;odour&#8217; was gone. Gang of idiots who couldn&#8217;t call me right away to come and take care of the problem!<\/p>\n<p>I asked why the outdoor work covered by the insurance wasn&#8217;t done. Because they do all the work at the same time, never mind that I told them that I need the insurance work done first to get the cheque for it by the time my work was done.<\/p>\n<p>The service tech really doesn&#8217;t care if he gets my money or not. The work on the motorhome, including the part covered by the insurance, is $4,000 and the tow package installation would have been another $2,000. I wish my business was running so smoothly that I could afford to give up $6,000!<\/p>\n<p>I told him that I would be checking back on Thursday and that if nothing was started that they could do just the insurance portion and forget the rest. The guy said that would suit him just fine! I have until now been very polite and patient and haven&#8217;t called every two days for updates. This was the first time I got angry with him, so where this attitude is coming from, I have no idea.<\/p>\n<p>So Miranda has been in the shop for a month for nothing. I am convinced at this point that I am going to end up picking her up Friday with absolutely no work done on her. That means I have to start all over again to find a shop to do the insurance portion, have to get the insurance company to cancel the cheque to VR Expert waiting to be mailed out, have to get a new estimate, have to get a new insurance approval, have to wait again for a shop to have time to take me&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Needless to say, forget the overhang repair at this point. It&#8217;s too late for that. I&#8217;m just going to take a cooler day, remove the trim and existing Eternabond, apply new tape, and the seal it in by reapplying the trim over top.<\/p>\n<p>I am so angry and I just want to cry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I went to VR Expert today to check on the status of the repair work.
