Hi. On another thread a potential buyer of a Geist LV485 discovered body warping on the nearside of the 'van. This appears to have been caused by failure of the chassis rail on the BPW v-tech swing chassis. This same potential buyer gained the opinion that there had been a recall on some Geist 'vans (4 or 5 series?)

Is there anyone out there who had a recall? what was done? did it work? was the 'van 100% OK afterwards? Or do you know of anyone involved or even hear of this?

Many thanks!

Hi, thanks for the info. I have discovered chassis cracks. Yup, the bloke who extols the virtues of Geist gets a chassis fracture!

 We did not receive notice of the recall as the dealer from whom we purchased new in 2005 gave up the franchise. I have an offer from BPW of replacement chassis rails and I'm pursuing the remnants of Geist. Interstingly - I have only minimal evidence in the 'van.

I'll keep you posted! Thanks again!

Hi we have a Geist LV485 2004 we bought this second hand in 2010, we had it serviced last year but have taken it to another dealer for a service this year and have been told that the chassis is cracked. I have seen some reference to problems with this model and wondered if anone knows if there had been a recall?
