CUSTOMER SERVICE IS NON-EXISTANT.

I have been trying for over an hour to contact customer service. I've tried many different phone numbers, even the one that came with the product, and got nothing. I was put on hold forever, and I left a message.

Trying to locate a Atwood product

Dometic - Trying to locate a Atwood product
Updated by user Dec 18, 2024

Customer service was nice but the company discontinued the appliance I was inquiring about 10 years ago.

Original review Dec 16, 2024

Atwood was a small appliance manufacturer that was bought out by a company called Dometic. I am trying to find a water heater for a camper that was built built by Atwood in 1999.

This item was discontinued 10 years ago. I'm OK with that but it would be nice if their catalog and contact information got updated.

After much frustration I contacted Dometic and learned what I need to know but that may not have happened without the help of Pissed Consumer! Thank you!

To ask a question?Why is it so difficult.

Dometic - To ask a question?Why is it so difficult.

So, the one that they had, I couldn't talk to anybody. You gave me a key and a bunch of information. It seemed useless for a phone call, and I still got nowhere.

Resolved: Dometic is not honoring 1 year warranty on parts for m

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Updated by user Jul 31, 2024

Company fixed the issue and I have been provided with product replacement. I had to contact a Mobile RV Tech to diagnose and document the failure with pictures, provide a receipt from Amazon, and a Pic of the label on the awning itself.

Updated by user Jul 31, 2024

I ended up buying a off brand motor for $150 from Amazon deliver within a week to allow me to retract my awning for storms and to have the ability to tow the trailer. I received it and works fine.

It is the exact same part, the housing even has the same casting stamps as the Dometic. The only difference is that there is no Dometic symbol on the housing that attached to the arm. I finally was able to get a positive response from Dometic by contacting a mobile RV Tech to diagnose/verify my motor being failed. That receipt, emailed to Dometic support, has initiated a replacement being mailed.

Now I have a spare that I really should not have to use if the parts are quality.The frustrating part is that the mobile tech diagnosing my issue is a $280 fee, where I am fully capable, and have the tools on hand to do this myself. But Dometic would not take my word or pictures as proof.

Original review Jul 21, 2024
Last year in September, I purchased a replacement RV awning motor for a defective part on my RV (a 2020 model manufactured in 2019). I ordered my part through Amazon.com for $400, which has a 30-day return policy.

In the ad, they claimed a 1-year warranty that is through the manufacturer. The part lasted 10 months and now I am trying to get a replacement from Dometic. I have the digital receipt from Amazon for the purchase.

They are refusing to do anything for my issue, stating I didn't buy the part from them. Now I'm stuck at a campground with an awning that has no way of retracting without removing the whole unit, or (according to Dometic) buying a $500 motor from them or their dealer.

User's recommendation: Don't buy Dometic products, they are cheaply made, way overpriced and the company doesn't stand behind their products.

Parts

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

The alleged parts are ordered. I will continue waiting without toilets for another 2 weeks.

The parts for my other repairs haven't arrived. Also, my service advisor is going on vacation for a week today. Therefore, nothing will be done until Cheyenne gets back from vacation.

Or at least that's what happened at the Holiday and Fort Myers branch. 'When your service advisor is gone, nothing gets done.

Poor customer service, very unprofessional!

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I was in need of help with a toilet that apparently had a known issue of raw sewage leaking into a compartment in the mid-section of the toilet due to a seal issue from the manufacturer. This affected a certain number of consumers within a certain serial number range.

I was told my unit was within these serial numbers, but it had been too long for them to offer a warranty replacement. WHAT!!! A known issue from the manufacturer isn't a warranty replacement; it's a recall on those units. The woman I spoke to was kind and transferred me to the escalations department, and boy, was I in for a treat!

Dolly, the escalations representative, let me speak fully, knowing she would shoot me down quickly. I was told that it was my fault that I didn't fix it within the three-year warranty period. I then asked for the corporate number and was rudely told to find it myself before she hung up on me!

What kind of service is that? It was the worst customer service I've ever had!

View full review
Cons:
  • Customer service and resolution for faulty product

Preferred solution: I'd like a replacement of the 310 toilet and I would pay the difference with domestic obviously covering the cost of the faulty 300 toilet or just the new 300 toilet.

User's recommendation: Domestic does not stand behind there products that should have been recalled due to manufacturer defects, and expect no customer support from them!

Customer Service

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I have tried for 5 days to reach customer service. On hold for 15 minutes, then get disconnected.

I then tried the online chat to no avail. I tried contacting the corporate offices, again, to no avail. After 18 phone calls, it looks as if I will just have to call someone to come repair my water heater in my RV.

I was just looking for a starting point to fix it (I'm very handy) and have done all the tests recommended in the manual. This place is a joke!!!

Original review Apr 28, 2024

Bought a new Dometic reverse cycle 3 1/2 years ago and within 2 years the remote fell apart and the control panel died. Remote was replaced control panel was replaced and now 10 months later the control panel has died again.

I was told this morning I am out of warranty by 4 months. Now I'm facing a $850 bill to have it fixed.

I thought I bought a top of the line quality product. I guess I'm the fool.
