RV Pre-Purchase Inspection


RV Pre-Purchase Inspection ~ Avoid needing to make Lemonade from a Lemon!

The process of searching for a Recreational Vehicle to purchase is a fun and exciting adventure. Similar to the process of looking for your next brick & mortar home, you spend a lot of time talking about floor plans, features, benefits, budget, and the plans to hit the road and have a great time exploring!

The professional team at Rick’s RV Center have seen just about everything that can go wrong with an RV, and we know how much it costs to repair them. And unfortunately we have also seen how well hidden some very expensive problems can be.

Whether you are buying one that is one year used or twenty years used, a pre-purchase inspection can save you thousands of dollars. Not to mention the frustration of finding out your wonderful new RV has “issues”!

That is the main reason we offer a Pre-Purchase Inspection. The Rick’s RV team are experts at RV service & repair and we know what to look for and how to test every system in the Coach of your RV.

For Motorhomes, please note while we do check engine & transmission fluid levels, we do Not inspect/test engine, transmission, and drive train in detail, so we recommend you use a reputable mechanic inspect those.

Here is an Overview of the Items we Inspect:
