Full Annual Service

caravan and motorhome_edited_edited.png

At MC Squared we recommend that a Full Service should be carried out once every 12 months.

You may ask yourself what is the point in having an Annual Caravan or Motorhome Service?

​

Firstly and one of the most important issues is safety. During a Full Service the gas and electrical systems are checked & inspected, and all necessary appliances are checked to ensure they operate correctly and safely.

​

Another safety aspect are the brakes and chassis. Quite often during a Caravan Service we find that brakes can be faulty due to a lack of maintenance or other causes.

​

Do you have a Caravan Manufacturer's or another Warranty supplied such as that from a Caravan Dealer?

If YES, then it is a condition of the warranty for a Full Service to be done every 12 months. Failure to have a Caravan service may deem the warranty null and void.

What's checked, inspected and tested as part of the service?

  • Tow electric plug and lead inspected for damage and corrosion.
