We're in Milwaukee area. Was told a dealer from Baraboo, WI (125 miles away) is the closest dealer that will come out to fix the awning motor, but that place tells us they have no idea when they will have time to fix it. We can't be the ONLY customer in the Milwaukee metro area to have this problem! Why can't the factory send out a rep to do all the Milwaukee area at one time?! We have a brand new trailer we can't use for almost 2 months now and have no idea how long this will take. There ought to be a law!

That is the number we called and they referred us to the dealer in Baraboo, who is telling us they have no idea when they will have time to make the 125 mile trip. Wouldn't even tell us if it would take weeks or months.

Have you tried Roskopf's in Menonomee falls? They're a FR dealer.

Yes, it is Scenic RV where we bought the trailer. Poor post-sale service.
We'll try calling Roskopf's. Thanks for the tip.

Did you buy from Scenic in Baraboo or Slinger?

The reason I asked is that I found Scenic Traveler in Slinger to have a good service department. They are the same dealership and a lot closer to you so may be worth a try. Matt is the Service Manager.

So call Dometic back and let them know. They won't find that dealer's response acceptable either.

I wonder if this affects some older models, I own a Rockwood WindJammer and while travelling to a wedding a month ago, the canopy deployed and we had to do an emergency stop and end up having to strap the arms and canopy down with wratchet straps. then slowly (50 m/hr or less) crawl home and have not been able to use our trailer again. I have contacted the dealer and they are checking.....will let you know results.

As far as I know, it only effects the 9100 series. Look on line and call Dometic directly. They sent a mobile service to my house.. Replaced the motor assembly with a larger diameter motor. Took a couple of weeks to get scheduled..
