i got a reminder yesterday to book my Chausson in for its habitation check in September (!) from Highbridge Caravans, who are about 70 miles away from me. I am aware that the Chausson warranty requires the hab check to be carried out by one of their dealers and there are none significantly closer to home, and I quite like Highbridge so no problem I thought, we are going to France in September from Plymouth and will be driving right past them on the way. Pop in, do the service, off to catch the late ferry, job done. No! Highbridge say that I have to empty the van of all my personal belongings, and as we would be off on our hols there would be a lot of them. Question is, is this a normal requirement? I haven't owned a van long enough for it to need a hab check before so in my naivety I just thought I could perhaps clear a few cupboards on the day, not have to empty the whole vehicle. Can I ask them to reconsider their requirement?
