Die ersten 4 Tage mit der A-Class: 1. Nach 20 Meilen Fahrt festgestellt, dass der Generator nicht geht. Zurück zur El Monte Station nach Las Vegas. 2 Stunden gewartet, dann auf Ersatzfahrzeug bestanden, was wir nach langer Diskussion bekommen haben. 2. Nach 100 Meilen geht gelbe Motorlampe an. Hotline ratlos - wir sollen weiterfahren solange es geht. 3. Lifting Jacks fahren nach dem 3. Stopp nicht mehr ein. Hotline nicht in der Lage, einen Techniker zu organisieren. Sind selbst aktiv geworden und haben lokal einen besorgt. 120 $ bezahlt - nach 6 Stunden konnten wir weiterfahren. 4. Während der Fahrt fällt der Monitor inkl. Entertainment-System und Rückfahrkamera aus…… 5. Plötzlich Gasalarm im Auto: alles gecheckt und siehe da, Gastank leer. Wieder für 51 $ aufgetankt. Wieder Gasalarm. Haupthahn zugedreht. Den Rest des Urlaubs fahren wir ohne Gas ( und teilweise ohne Kühlschrank, wenn Generator nicht laufen darf). Ich höre jetzt auf - das Auto ist ein reiner Schrotthaufen!

Vielen Dank, dass Sie Ihre Erfahrung so ausführlich mit uns geteilt haben. Wir verstehen, wie belastend die wiederholten technischen Probleme, langen Verzögerungen und die unzureichende Unterstützung während Ihrer Reise gewesen sein müssen. Besonders die Probleme mit dem Generator, den Stützen, der Rückfahrkamera und der Gasanlage sind ernst und wurden zur Prüfung an unser Team weitergeleitet. Wenn Sie den Vorgang weiter besprechen möchten, kontaktieren Sie bitte unser Guest Services Team unter [email protected].

Very friendly, on time. The staff are amazing and took care of all my questions and helped more than I expected. The RV was in great shape. The only issue we had was that the house battery would not charge from the shorepower which is a big deal.

The unit itself was in great shape and everything worked. However the added costs when checking out was not expected and added a lot of cost. The original quote was around $1200.00 but added cost when checking out was $195 for pick up $295 and add another $70 if you want to use the awning. These are all costs that should be included in the base cost.

We appreciate you sharing your feedback regarding the additional costs. We understand how unexpected charges can be frustrating, and we are reviewing our pricing transparency to ensure all costs are clearly communicated upfront.

Unfortunately, this was not a great experience, and it really discouraged me from renting an RV again. From the start, we had several issues with the RV. The generator wasn’t working properly, and we were unable to connect to the hotspot, which was a major inconvenience during our trip. The driver’s side mirror also rattled excessively the entire drive, making it difficult to see clearly and creating a safety concern. I contacted customer service during the trip to report these issues. I was assured the mirror wouldn’t be a problem and was even authorized to make a quick fix if needed. However, when I returned the RV, the experience took a turn for the worse. I was told I had damaged the mirror and was sent a bill for it. When I explained exactly what customer service had instructed me to do, I was simply told they “weren’t knowledgeable,” and the representative quickly ended the conversation before directing me to corporate via email. The entire return process felt dismissive and frustrating. Between the high rental cost, expensive fuel, and the multiple mechanical issues, the experience simply wasn’t worth the money or the stress. For the amount spent, I would rather book hotels and enjoy a much smoother vacation. I understand that mechanical issues can happen, but what really disappointed me was how the situation was handled. Better communication and customer service would have made a significant difference.
