    Charged $400 for camper diagnosis despite agreeing to a $180 minimum fee, and received no explanation or response to multiple follow-up attempts.I brought my camper to Tennessee Valley RV for diagnostic services. I was informed and agreed to a minimum diagnostic fee of $180. However, I was later charged $400 for cheking electrical panel with 5 breakers and 4 outlets total without any explanation or prior approval.Since then, I have submitted multiple follow-up emails asking for clarification and a breakdown of the charges, but I have received no response whatsoever. When I questioned the charge in person, the front desk staff said he would contacted the owner, but no one has followed up; and it has now been over two weeks.This lack of communication, transparency, and accountability raises serious concerns about how this business handles its customers and billing practices.Desired Outcome:A full explanation and itemized invoice showing how the $400 was calculated A refund of any unjustified charges beyond the agreed $180 diagnostic fee A written response from management or ownership directly addressing the issue

    I asked them to do a warranty replacement for a convection microwave oven. They took all information about it. Made calls and called me back.the owner said I can either have it delivered to me and I install it myself or I can have his technician install it for a price. I said I would like it mailed to me. He said well what if someone steals it it would be safer at my place. I agreed. That was a few months ago. I now cannot get them to answer the phone or return my calls. He was very angry with me when I said I would install it myself. I explained I just spent a lot of money on a brand new camper. He almost started crying trying to make me feel guilty saying "this is how I stay in business". I said I have bills of my own . So it's a two ways. I need this resolved please. I have exhausted all other resources. This is a very expensive item. Over $700.00 At this point the way he was acting trying to make me feel guilty for not using him..I have reached out to the secretary. And received an email.. with no dissolution. I believe they have my oven and have now stolen it and now refused to have mutual contact of any kind.

    We took our trailer to see if they could fix the water pump. The technician walked onto the trailer and flipped a breaker. Less than 10 minutes, with no real diagnosis being done except to flip the breaker and concur what we had already told them: the water pump is not working. They then proceeded to charge us $310 for the diagnostic. They didnt diagnose the problem. I called and they had no additional information. My fianc called and they were extremely rude when he asked what exactly he was paying $310 for. We paid them because we didnt want to stir up anything, but this business is obviously making a habit of taking advantage of people if you read their reviews. Im sick at my stomach over this! We are a new business and the water pump as a whole cost less than the diagnostic where we didnt receive the actual diagnosis.
