I think a lot of car manufactures play a similar game with warranties and make you believe that they are only valid if they get the carry out the checks and servicing. I found this inaccurate with Audi in particular where there is no requirement for me to get the servicing done by Audi themselves to maintain the warranty. I'd check the warranty itself and check whether these overpriced solutions are in fact required to be carried out by themselves.

In the owner's handbook if you study the warranty carefully the damp ingress warranty probably only covers permanently sealed joints. Chances of those joints allowing water ingress it highly unlikely. It does not cover leaks around the windows, doors lockers, cracked panels etc.
The 10 year warranty is very misleading but unfortunately legal and accepted by the Advertising Standards.
Our caravan is generally serviced by a mobile AWS technician and they are recognised by the NCC and your warranty is maintained.

Car and caravan industry totally different animals, and more than likely will remain so.

Totally agree with you. Our dealer wouldnt service it . Said it was covid but they were open. I ended up having it serviced on drive and company sent for warrenty parts from bailey who did not respond. Warrenty is a waste of time. Just get it serviced yourself with someone and if like me, repair the niggles yourself.
I don't think any warranty work can be carried out by a man on the drive, let alone order parts.
