EXTREME RV CLOSES IT'S DOORS
Greg Gerber of RV Industry News
CALDWELL, Idaho -- RV manufacturer Extreme RV has shut its doors, RV Industry News has learned.
The factory had laid of all but a handful of people a few weeks ago, according to one dealer in the Pacific Northwest, and now those employees appear to be out of jobs as well.
"We have been unable to reach anyone in the office for several days," the dealer explained.
In the last conversation she had with the company, another dealer learned that the firm was no longer honoring its warranty, nor was it making parts available to dealers. "I was supposed to take a unit into the factory for repair," she said. "When I finally got through to someone, he explained the firm was shutting down and that they weren't providing warranty work for anyone."
Nobody answered the phone at Extreme RV's offices when RV Industry News has tried to call since Wednesday. Messages left with one of the business' key partners were not returned.
