I've no experience of dealing with Vango re. repairs but have contacted them via email and received a prompt and helpful response. May be worth a try.

Blitz them with e-mails and phone calls....Let them know in no uncertain terms that 6 weeks is too long and if it's not back fully repaired you want an replacement unit.

Every day is a gift..That's why it's called the present.

I'm so sorry to hear you are having problems with Vango. I emailed them about my tent which wasn't under warranty and had been a display job but I hadn't used it much due to a propensity of canvas and other tents and the zip had come apart but I loved my tent. They replied promptly and asked me to send it with a receipt. This took me some time to find and another age to sort out packaging but I was in regular contact by email.
I finally posted the tent off to Scotland and within 4 days it was returned to me with a replacement much sturdier zip and velcro bits. Only cost to me was the postage.
Good luck

I had a problem with a Vango tent and they sent word a new replacement was being sent to the camping shop for me, instead of repairing it. Took about 4 weeks in all for replacement. I thought this was good service from Vango.
