    Complaint Type:
    Service or Repair Issues
    Status:
    Resolved
    Original complaint was that the hose connecting the fresh water tank to the pump in my "brand new camper trailer" popped off due to the hose being to short and improperly clamped which resulted in water damage to the floor and water pump damage. I had asked Carlson Sports to repair the hose and to check the pump and floors, subfloor and insulation for water damage. The same day I dropped the trailer off, they had called me back saying the hose was fixed and everything was checked and fine (which I have paper documentation of from Carlson sports). I brought the trailer back home which is 1.5 hours away, and tested everything. The water pump leaks now and there is a big yellow stain on the floor by the entrance which leaves me to believe water trickled down and pooled there. I have since tested the pump and it continues to produce a leak sometimes small sometimes very large to the point it flows out from underneath the bed frame and across the floor and underneath the fridge area. Our carbon monoxide detector which is located in the same area as the water pump also went off recently in which we just opened windows and vents and turned the propane off. I have asked Carlson Sports for a refund and for me to return the trailer as I am very unhappy with the issues we have had, especially for a brand new trailer that we used for two camping trips. I have more pictures, videos, and emails with Carlson Sports all regarding this matter.

    The Salespeople are not bad, but the service manager is a real jerk. Bought a new side by side from Carlson and once home I noticed that one of the brackets locking the Hood was broken. Called to complain and he said it was my fault. After a while of arguing with him he said he would order a new part, but might take a while because of shipping problems during covid 19. I reached out to him 7 months latter and he said he never ordered it. I voiced my concern and he was very ignorant about it. Said he would order it again. Well, another 3 months has gone by and I still have not received nor heard from him. That guy is terrible to deal with and I can Assure you that the better price you get from them is not worth the aggrevation from this guy. I shall never buy anything from them again and will tell others.

    Dear Mr. ******. We are disappointed to see that your experience has been viewed as an unpleasant one. Customer satisfaction is something we take very seriously, it's the foundation that our 50 years in business is built on. In speaking with our staff, the barrier to having this resolved a long time ago seems to be a lack of communication. We need to verify the exact part that's needed. Our requests to physically see your unit or have you send us a picture - those options have been denied. As we previously maintained, please provide us visual confirmation of the broken item and it will be ordered and provided to you as promised.
