Sorry service team led by Clint the service manager. They do very sloppy, careless work or simply do not finish their job at all! THEN THEY expect payment by either the customer or the manufacturer for their shady work performed!! I would NEVER go back there again! Maybe I don't have a "nice enough" trailer or coach for them to work on or perform satisfactory work, but that is still very unacceptable in my book!! I still have a 2017 trailer that is worth nearly $30,000 and I take great care and pride in it and when I pay for someone to work on it I expect to at least have a decent job performed. This place failed in every aspect of that! Then when called up to fix it or assist, all I was given then was excuses!! Yes, they have some decent reviews, yet I'd steer away from this place if I were you! Very shady work in service!!
All, below is a full detailed review of my experiences with Augusta RV over the past seven months, specifically with the service team, lead by Clint; their service manager. Please bear with the long review! If it is too much for some to read, feel free to scan through it, but it behooves you to read it in its entirety as I've truly had some very detailed experiences with their service department and I will explain those details below.
Some have considered me to be meticulous, yet I simply take pride in the work I do every time I work on something and I'd like to be able to receive and expect that same quality of work when I hire someone and pay money for services rendered. I'm not a hard guy to please, yet I do expect basic standards of quality to be met when my equipment is worked on. Now to be frank I will just state things right up front. I am extremely displeased and plain out disgusted with the quality of service that has been conducted on my trailer and I feel extremely disrespected by the same. Too bad the Owner and/or General Manager of Augusta RV don't have any of their information listed on their website as I would have loved to have included them on this message. I'm sure they may have liked to read this as well; maybe they will see this review anyway. Well I brought my trailer down to Augusta RV last fall to have numerous faults corrected under the manufacturer's warranty and it all began with this...
I immediately was given the runaround through lies and misinformation from the get go, and for the first 1-2 months of my trailer being there. I was told they had ordered the parts needed for my trailer yet no one in Heartland (the manufacturer of my trailer) had any knowledge of such an order. THEN, that order was finally placed and I guess shipped out by Heartland and somehow that order was misplaced. Now I'm not sure if that was on Heartland's end, or if that large of an order actually got lost in the mail in transit somehow or if it was on Augusta RV's end, but that again made me lose even more time! Well, it wasn't until I had to become more personally involved in the maintenance process myself (even though I consider that entirely NOT MY job and should have been completed and followed up on by the service team at Augusta RV) and I contacted Heartland myself and actually got the ball rolling through Bob Pierson and Jeff Marner that the needed parts finally started rolling into Augusta RV's shop and then began getting installed. All this took about 2-3 months by this time now. Then I get the call to come pick up the trailer and I come in and inspect the trailer and it appears to me that several of the items on the repair list weren't even completed properly, if at all (and I'll list a bunch of these items below to show everyone what was done and/or not done.
Well, by that time, I just wanting to get my trailer back and be done with it and I could finish those last items myself or have another ASC closer to me perform the work properly. We still had a few parts on backorder from Heartland and when I picked up my trailer back in November, though they (specifically Clint) had told me that when those parts arrived into their shop that they would contact me to come back in and have them installed, well that also failed to happen!
Then based off my previous experiences with Augusta RV up to that point I decided to contact Heartland to have those parts shipped to me so either I could install them myself or again have an ASC closer to me install them. Yet Heartland had told me that those parts had already been shipped to Augusta RV (in December) and I would have to go see them to have them completed. So I waited for their phone call figuring they may have been busy. Well December went by and then into January, then late January by the time I contacted them to inquire about these parts. They (Augusta RV) had then finally told me that yes they had these parts in, yet again only after I finally contacted them over a month later by that time.
