Have the build info (Greg - see comment re your unit)

Now, the question is what info do I have now that I didn't have before?

1. I hadn't checked the build date - and it surprised me. Or, is that the date it was ordered by Jayco. Looking at the RO date that is more than 3 months later, should one conclude that GM built this unit on spec and let it sit for 3 months?

2. Frame rail warranty - that could be misleading because of the extension and addition - would the warranty still be honored?

All of the options tie into the label above the visor that I photographed and checked today.

Greg, note that we have the same build date!!!! But, you have no warranty info showing and no warranty start date. Did the dealer not file this info? Mine did and the 471 miles is exactly what the odo said on delivery. I'd suggest you contact your dealer.

I think I'll throw in my year old Tahoe to see what comes out. DW's Equinox is back north in our garage so I can't get the VIN number until we get back north.

I suspect Jayco orders a number of chassis on spec based on past numbers
and they sit in the yard until they put a motorhome on them. When I
tried to order a 2008 32SS and was told I couldn't, the rep at Jayco
said they had committed to 16 in October and they were sold. They had
more chassis that were being sent somewhere else so apparently they sold
the left over gasser chassis to another manufacturer.

I've got a delayed warranty start showing activation at 960 miles which
is what was on it when I picked it up in GA. Doesn't sound like the
warranty is worth much if all being said around here is true.

Take care,
Greg

I had a delayed start as well and it shows on the report. I'm wondering why yours doesn't show. Since I don't trust dealers it makes me think that perhaps they never got around to filing it.

I've got a letter from the delayed warranty start department of GM on
their letterhead so I think I'm okay. Now whether it's in a computer
anywhere, who knows, but in big letters it says to keep a copy of this
with my records :-)

Take care,
Greg

Good. I got the same notice so you are protected.
