Dealer aftercare services motorhome warranty specialist helpline
Dealer aftercare services motorhome warranty specialist helpline. Motorhome campervan caravan dealer warranty packages. In these troubled times, many manufacturers and dealers are facing changes. In the past marketing and selling leisure vehicles has relied on shows and events to promote new and used leisure vehicles. Things are changing rapidly, and change is never easy to handle. The coming months will be challenging to say the least. So, let us take a look at what is driving the changes.
- Shortage of new and quality used vehicles
- Higher prices and cost of living impacting budgets
- Shows and events cancelled
- Changing customer profile (many thousands of first-time buyers)
- Aftercare problems higher customer expectations
- Staff shortages holding up handovers and service work
- Sourcing used stock
- More owners renting out their vehicles
Nothing presses harder on your business than the shortage of stock following Covid-19.
How has this all come about? It’s because no new vehicles manufactured means no rotation for owners, which feeds the pre-owned market. Pent-up demand on a grand scale. Add to that staycation and owners’ vehicle rentals this is making dealers look harder to find good used motorhomes. Leading to many dealers unsuccessfully trying to buy direct from owners to help maintain stock and income. There are just not enough used motorhomes to go around. New motorhomes now following a similar pattern of shortage of stock due to issues of component supply.
This is not just a UK problem. Things tend to have a knock-on effect, the supply issues are becoming a global issue and that could hold consequences shortly. Some customers are beginning to see that price will be a factor with price increases becoming inevitable. So, every add-on feature that provides a customer with value has to be found.
