Al,
I've never dealt with a warranty transfer either, but...
The first 2 paragraphs of the warranty give (at least some) info on what's required. See Pg 6, titled: 'Limited One Year Warranty'
Please be aware that there may be additional requirements listed in the 3 pages of Warranty Info... I simply skimmed through it quickly, and MAY have missed something!
Those 2 paragraphs state, IN PART:
*"All owners (original or subsequent) must be properly registered with Keystone RV Company to be considered for eligibility."*
*"The subsequent purchaser(s) also has an obligation to notify Keystone immediately upon the transfer of the warranty and to further provide proof of purchase within the one (1) year."*
Assuming that the Avalanche was originally purchase from an authorized Keystone dealer (as also required by the warranty), the rest of the process appears [to me] to be a combined effort - starting with the dealer & ending with you.
I'd think the dealer would FIRST register you as the new owner (with Keystone) & start the warranty transfer; and then, you'd have to complete the process according to the warranty obligations.
That said - I'd suggest that you call the dealer (ASAP) to ask questions & get details. One phone call now, could save you both some time & possible headaches/delays on the 17th.
Keep in mind that most dealers probably don't do many 'warranty transfers' and may not be familiar with the process either. There MAY (or may not) be specific document(s) that you & the dealer are required to complete at the time of delivery. There may be a specific process in which YOU are required to "notify Keystone immediately upon the transfer of the warranty." [Call a specific dept??... Documents by certified mail??... etc.]
If your dealer doesn't know how to do a warranty transfer or what's required??... well... kindly ask HIM call Keystone & find out!! Dealers have a direct phone line to the *Bat Cave*, and you don't.
Odds are, HE will get the answers faster.
Let us know how the process works, the info may be helpful to someone else at a later date!
