Not sure I'd want the factory guy or the dealer servicing the bearings. Mine had all 4 brakes full of grease from someone, not me, using the EZ Lube system either at the factory or dealership & all 4 replaced at about 5k miles.
No way is a dealer voluntarily going the tear a new rv done to inspect the bearings/brakes, if anything they'll do exactly as they did mine & pump them full of grease & roll it out the door.
As mentioned the frames come into the factory upside down, all tanks, wiring & most of the plumbing is done, next there's a huge pile of axles with springs attached that are bolted up to the frame hopefully assembled correctly by the axle manufacturer, the frame is then flipped over & rv built upwards.
