    Swift - obtaining spare parts

    Hi An update on the situation - we went to a different dealer who was prepared to repair the motorhome and honour the trade in price for an upgrde to a nearly new motorhome that was given before the accident. We now have a virtually new Aurosleeper and have vowed never to buy another Swift. I...

    Swift - obtaining spare parts

    I wish I could do this but we are afraid the crack in the door frame may allow water ingress so are reluctant to use the motorhome. The farce with the parts continues - I received an email from Swi ft last week to day that the parts were being dispatched to Lowdhams on Thursday but we have been...

    Good idea - I think if we don't hear anything this week, then that will be our next move. Thank you

    Swift - obtaining spare parts

    Thank you for all your advice. I have tried to contact Swift but as most of you are aware, their customer service is really poor and I cannot speak directly to anyone. The dealer who has ordered the parts is Lowdham Leisure of Nottingham, which I have come to understand also has a reputation...

    Swift - obtaining spare parts

    Thanks for this advice - tried ringing and recieved a reply to contact my dealer - I can only assume that Swift do not take any responsibility for people trying to deal with them - this must be the poorest customer service I have ever met.

    Swift - obtaining spare parts

    Can anyone advise me how to get hold of someone to speak to at Swift Leisure? Unfortunately we damaged out motorhome in early June and the company repairing it has ordered parts from Swift. However the lead time on this was initially a maximum of 30 days which has now passed and no parts have...
