“The awning attached to the van and manufactured by fiamma does not extend or retract correctly and breaks down every single time we have had it fixed. The motor has to be replaced each time which is money out of our pocket.”

However, the issues were not addressed and caused further damage to my vehicle. When I addressed those issues, I contacted the manufacturer, who refused to reimburse me for the repairs.
