RECEIVED RECALL FOR FUEL TANK BRACES DEFECT AND TOOK IT TO CAMPING WORLD OF GULF BREEZE, FL ON 4/18/19 WHERE I PURCHASED IT IN FEB 2019, AND THEY WAITED UNTIL 4/26 TO ORDER PARTS FROM JAYCO. JAYCO SHIPPED ON 5/1 AND WAS RECEIVED BY THEM ON 5/3. I HAVE CALLED SEVERAL TIMES AND THEY TELL ME ONE TIME THEY RECEIVED PARTS AND WHEN I CALL AGAIN THEY HAVE NOT RECEIVED PARTS. I AM TIRED OF GETTING THE RUNAROUND FROM THEM. I AM STILL WAITING FOR IT TO BE REPAIRED. THIS IS NOW 5/13 AND THEY STILL HAVE NOT FIXED IT. IT HAS BEEN ALMOST A MONTH SINCE I DROPPED IT OFF TO THEM. THEY WOULD NOT LET ME LEAVE WITH IT AS IT WAS A SAFETY HAZARD.
