    I bought a Lance trailer in March 2023. The slide out broke and Lance claims it was overloaded. When the slide was removed I saw that there were only two rollers installed to carry the weight of the slide overhang when retracted. The installation manual specified four rollers. *******, the manufacturer rates the load capacity of the slide at 750 pounds with four rollers on the inside. That is for the weight of the ********** in total. With only two rollers I estimate capacity to half that or less. Lance did not install the slide out to manufactures specs and will not make it right.

    I bought a new Lance **** travel trailer in August 2022. This spring the black water gate valve started leaking. I took the trailer in to the dealer in May 2023. They ordered a replacement valve from Lance on June 1 (trailer is still under warranty). This leak makes a mess when you go to dump the ** tanks and I need to get it fixed. I called the dealer several times since June 1 and they said they have no idea when the part will come in. So I went to Lance customer service directly. I have emailed them twice, and called them 3 times in the last 2 weeks. Calls go directly to voice mail. I have received no replies from Lance, either from email or phone calls. This is horrible customer service, but I see that it is a common complaint.

    Bought my Lance **** in August 2020- reported warranty claim with my slide out one year later, used Lance's ONLY authorized dealer within 400 miles of home, they had my camper from October 2021 until February of 2022 to make the needed repairs, and here I sit filing this complaint because the same slide out issue has stranded me again one year later. Lance says they won't cover the repairs again, it's my problem now!! How does this make any sense? *************************- anyone...please help. This is our second time using it since was it repaired and we don't trust it any longer.

    My Lance Camper model **** was shipped to me, and sold without disclosing that it is missing most of the shades and blinds. I have been trying to resolve that since delivery in February. The unit also quickly developed a safety issue, with the plastic underbelly pans sagging onto the axles and pinching a propane line. Furthermore, the unit slide out has failed, which put the unit out of service in July of 2022. Since then I have exhausted an incredible amount of time trying to get Lance, their dealer *****************, and even the parts manufacturer ******* Lci, to honor their contractual obligations to provide a) the full unit I purchased including all the missing parts and b) the warranty advertised. I have hauled the unit around town, made dozens of calls to all of them. I have emailed, called, and created support tickets. I paid for Lance's "priority support" and was ignored. I've messaged Lance officers including the general manager of Lance on LinkedIn. I've gotten nowhere. I believe they are in breach of contract on the warranty issue, let alone the missing parts.
