I purchased a 2017 VIP two weeks ago and on our first day discovered a badly leaking bathroom tap.Contacted the company I bought it from and they came out and inspected it.Apparently it needs a new tap and will take 4-5 weeks to get one.The guy at Coachman won’t even answer the phone.Absolutely fuming.

Why do you need to contact Coachman Caravans in Hull when the dealer has said they will replace the leaking tap?

I would like to know why it takes 4-5 weeks to get a tap from Hull to York.

That's nothing, we are now in week eleven waiting on a new awning light.

Here is part of a reply from Coachman that I got the other week,

"With regards to replacement parts, we aim to supply parts where possible in 2-3 weeks, however if the parts are to be ordered this may be increased."

The guy that answers from Coachman is a right pr*t, not even worth talking to him.

Same old.
Regardless of make.
Its a fact with a caravan you take your chances even on a new one.
Until we the end user can somehow hold them to account we shall see the same story repeating and repeating.

And am with you in the dissapointment that you are having.

WE have the 30 day act.
And other acts as a consumer.
But you would not accept this if it was a car, lorry, motorbike, etc. So why a caravan?

How do we change it, dont think anyone has the answer to that one.
