Well to start with the add for this unit says handicapped accessible which is what I needed for my daughter to be able to get in as she is in a wheelchair. Owner assured me that her chair would fit in thru the toy hauler and this turned into the owner having to lift my daughter and throw her on the bed and roll her over the bed to the other side to get her in her chair in order for her to get into the living quarters and it bothers me that he that he thought that was ok to have to do but once we paid and left with the unit it was our problem to get her in and out not his.So she never got to leave the living room except when I asked for assistance at two casinos to get her out the door. It took 2 security guards and a policeman to get her out safely because I was not going to throw her on the bed and roll her to the other side to get her out the hauler he considered handicapped accessible. Then we had some issues that we just dealt with because I asked for assistance with the tv unit and he informed me he was a dr and was at his clinic and could not help me.
That was after he gave us his card and told us to call for assistance anytime. Then we came back earlier than planned because of my daughter being confined inside and then we had issues with the AC and requested he meet us at the drop off place to inspect the unit when we returned and he said he could not meet us due to having a family and needing to be home with them. And then today he has bombarded me with texts with issues and damages he says we caused with my daughters wheelchair even though she was never in it the entire time all she could do was sit on the couch due to not being able to get out of the unit safely without more assistance than me and my husband could do at our destination. Needless to say our neighbor was going to check on renting the unit to go to Missouri later this year and going thru your business and we have told him to go elsewhere because we don’t want to see him screwed around like we have been. Thomas keeps stating how he is a professional and a doctor but he is anything but. We were totally mislead about the safety and accessibility of my daughter and know he expects us to pay for all kinds of stuff he says we did when all he had to do was meet us there and go over the unit with us and he would see we did not do that stuff. He says only a wheelchair could have done the damage when in fact in the areas he said were damaged she never went. I will steer anyone clear of your website because this experience has actually been traumatic for my daughter. She did nothing but sit on the couch for 6 days due to us being mislead about her being safe. I did get a call from Jason who wanted to check on us yesterday and I told him everything we were having issues with and he noted them so you can read more about how our trip was postponed two weeks as well due to water pump issues. He said it will all be there for you to read. I am very upset that he expects us to pay for stuff that were not damaged by us and he would not meet us on our return. He only wants to continue to say he has a family and I don’t know his life and he could not make arrangements to meet us so we didn’t have this issue of him us to pay him more money. Very disappointed in this whole experience. You can call me at 765 602 2020 if you need to talk to me regarding anything. Thank you for listening and have a great nightTeenHauler he considered

réponse de Thomas
The renters were given exact measurements of all interior doors and notified that their daughter would be able to get in and out of the toy hauler section with ease, then also be able to move around in the living room when the slide out was pushed out. See the following text to the renter prior to their rental. They had all ability to measure their daughters wheelchair prior to rental. :”The entire back door drops down to make a large ramp that designed for golf carts, four wheelers, etc. From there the door frame to get from the garage/toy hauler section is 22" wide. All other exterior doors have a functional measurement of approximately 23".”They responded to this by stating:“ Yes but we just need to be able to get her in and out. Don’t have to have bathroom handicapped accessible only need to be able to get her in and out of the camper.”My response:“She will definitely be able to get in and out of the toy hauler section which has its own TV, AC unit, and stereo system.”They again respond with the following and proceed to book their trip:“Her transport chair will allow her to get into the unit further.”To conclude the accessibility issues the renter has stated, as shown above they were well informed and chose to book the unit with the above information.As to their daughter being “thrown on the bed” comment. Hi assisted down angrier than your daughter by wheeling her up in the back and then for their request hi assisting them and getting her up in two days so she can get buckled in for their drive. I simply lifted their daughter and put her on the master bed as instructed by the parents. They assured me prior to doing so this that it was a normal way they moved her around on a regular basis.They then state their daughter “was never in her wheelchair in the unit” yet that’s exactly where the father placed her after picking her up off of the bed and then rolling her the the living room.To the only issue these renters notified myself of was their issues with the TV. They didn’t know how to turn it on and they didn’t know how to change the source or operate the apps being it was a smart TV. I addressed these issues within the hour each time.The Renters did not contact me call another six days until which that point they text me asking for permission to him pay for repairs to my AC units in the living room and bedroom. At no point prior to this to the ever even notify me they were having an issue with the AC unit. As soon as I receive this message I called the renters back immediately to understand what issue they were having. The renters then stated that “they hadn’t had AC since last night and it is now 86° in the unit and they are at a service center getting ready to have the unit looked at”. This was at 2:30 PM on Monday the 24th, and apparently the AC it went out sometime late on the 23rd. Again at no point was I ever contacted to any issue with this, just ask remission to pay for it to be fixed. Once learning of the issue I then contacted the manufacturer for the AC unit and within an hour we were able to over the phone identify that the renters had pressed the hold button on the AC unit which then does not allow them to change any of the settings. I’ve been immediately informed the renters of this problem and explain to them how to fix it, that point they decided that they were just going to return the rental two days early. Upon return of the unit I am immediately checked out the AC system and it operated flawlessly. This issue was a severe concern seen as the renters did not notify me for approximately 18 hours if there was an issue with the AC, and once notify we resolve the issue within an hour from two states away. This entire situation and others I will describe your suit were caused by the renters not being able to operate technology as instructed in there one hour pre-trip departure.The renters out of the blue decided to bring the unit back to days early he stated that they would be back around 930 that evening giving me approximately six hours to arrange a way to be able to meet them at the drop off. Being a father of three small children and a husband, as well as a doctor I was unable to flip my schedule around enough to meet this short notice. I made all efforts to do so but by approximately 9 PM I realize that there was no way I was going to be able to be there once they arrived late that night so I instructed them to lock the unit up describes where to park the unit and where to place my keys and they had no issues with that. At this point they notified me that they were going to leave me a list of problems that they had throughout their trip on the kitchen table. I immediately asked what problems they were referring to seeing as I was never notified of anything except the TV (which we resolved immediately) and then the AC unit that they didn’t tell us about for 18 hours (which I resolved within an hour).They left me a list of issues that they had which you can see below and I will address each individual issue as I did with the renters. Quick summary of everything you worry below is that all of these issues were caused by the renter not notifying myself of any difficulties whatsoever (other than the TV in the almost a day late notification on AC operational issues).“Hello! I just wanted to touch base with you all in regards to the letter that you left me issues. Just kind of go and order from your list. I have noted with an Astruc as to the cause/reason for The noted issues you all had.1. TV issue we had two conversations about on two separate dates resolving that. *This was an operators error induced issue.2. The leaking underneath of the storage area was caused by you all not switching over the handle/valve to let them know the motorhome was using the water in the tanks and not coming from city water and a hose. That problem was simply resolved this morning by flipping the switch over. *This was an operators error problem and not notifying myself to help resolve the issue.3. You all stated that you did not have hot water the entire trip. But at no time was I ever notified of this issue until you were headed back last night. This is all been checked and document it on the live video as not to be an issue at all. I simply turned on the hot water heater using the panel next to the HVAC panel and then made sure that the propane was open and available to be used and turned on the water pump so that you could have circulating water and had scolding hot water in less than two minutes.
*This again was operator error and not contacting myself to assist.4. Back door being hard to open complaint. Not exactly sure what this means but if you're implying that the door is large I am confused to that as you clearly saw the pictures of it and then watched me operate it before your departure.
* Notified prior to renting/unrealistic expectations5. Handicap accessibility. We spoke about this in detail in regards to not being able to function in the master bedroom, but this was discussed prior to booking the trip it was very well documented by pictures in the actual listing. Being handicap accessible does not mean that everything that a normal person can do that person in a wheelchair we have to do. Being able to get the wheelchair up into the unit which you were able to do using the ramp and then her being able to function throughout the main living quarters where I was told she would be the entire time. No point was I was told she would be in the bedroom so that really was not a concern of mine where yours has any time. I do understand your frustration with having to maneuver your daughter to get in and out, but this unit has the best capabilities to make that as little of a hassle as possible compared to any other motorhome you could have chosen.
* notified prior to renting/unrealistic expectations6. Screen torn in the back. Thank you for the information I have noted that and we will have a work order put on inch to be repaired. It had some tracking issues prior so I guess those have now fully torn off on that left corner due to those. I do not blame you offer any of that damage and it will be taken care of on my end. Again thank you for bringing that to my attention.7. Refrigerator/freezer won't lock had to tape it shut. Another issue that I was never notified about and I am uncertain if it was being operated how it was supposed to that is a brand new locking system so not sure how that would've not operated accordingly. I am not very thrilled that again another issue that I was not notified about and then you all taped it shut which is a chance that you could've caused damage to the exterior.
* operator error/did not notify myself of any issue throughout the trip.8. Propane tank fill by us. waste tanks empty by us. fresh water is at 70%. gray and black tanks at 0%. does ride nice and smooth.
I am assuming all of these were just documentation of what you did on return and I appreciate all of those. Thank you very much.As to the difficulties you all experience throughout your trip it is clear and obvious to me that they were all induced by operators error and or lack of communication with myself (the owner) to talk you through any of those difficulties. I am very displeased with your rental as a whole and your lack of communication when it comes to my unit. That is absolutely unheard of for someone to have any of the difficulties you had and not notify the owner immediately to try to resolve the issues. If you had done so the only issue you would've experienced would be the screen issue and then maybe I'll give you the benefit of doubt on the refrigerator. I can only help you if I have the information to do so I cannot read your mind and know what you're going through unless you communicate that to me.”Last during my end trip walk-through I noted scratches and pieces taken out of the cabinetry in the kitchen, the walls in the hallway from the kitchen to the bedroom, the exterior of the bathroom door, the leather on the kitchen table booths. He scratches were approximately 2 feet or less off of the ground (which would coincide with the height of their daughters wheelchair). Instead of filing a claim for the damages immediately, I instead contacted the renters asking if they had known anything about the damages noted as well as I sent them specific pictures of what I was referring to. They then assured me that they took pictures before they left that evening and there was no damage at all. I subsequently asked for those pictures to document what they were stating and they were unable to produce any pictures.To some of this very long response this rental was a complete nightmare on our end as the renters did not communicate throughout their trip with the exception of turning the TV on and off. They were a slightly older couple that clearly is unable to operate any type of technology and they stated to me that they were “doing me a favor “by not contacting me about any of their major issues.Again to note that all of their major issues most Importantly the AC, the hot water heater, and leaking under the unit where operator error and not asking for assistance from myself.I will also note that there was an initial delay in the start of this rental due to an expansion take busting so we had to push their rental back two weeks to give us time to get the part and replace it. Because of that we gave the renters three additional days FOR FREE, as well as, bought their handicap daughter a s’more camping kit and a tie-dye purse as an attempt to make her experience a little more special and apologize for the delay in the start of their trip.We take these issues very seriously in our amending all of our policies because of this nightmare of a rental. We do anything and everything to make our renters experiences incredible ones and are able to resolve almost any issue within an hour of being notified as noted above in all of this lovely text. If you were able to stick through and read all of this I appreciate your time In reading our response to these false and defaming comments. Please feel free to message us in regards to any questions or concerns that you may have. We look forward to renting to you.
