    One of the many stops at mechanics' garages who could not help us.
    Kristina B.

    This business moved and started a new Yelp page. The old page had 8 reviews with an average of 3 stars. There were a handful of 5 star reviews and the rest were one star reviews. I suspect this is because you could easily have a great experience as long as nothing goes wrong. In our case, something went wrong, and it was disastrous. Our story is a long one. Here's the executive summary: buyer beware! Run away! Here's the blow-by-blow. My husband and I wanted to rent an Itasca Navion because we'd considered buying one. We found that RV Northwest was the only company at the time that offered one for rent. We booked it for a week-long 10th wedding anniversary tour of Oregon last summer. When we arrived at this RV rental place, we found a chaotic and confusing scene. We worked with several people while they tried to get us checked out. After awhile, they admitted they'd locked the keys in the vehicle and did not have a spare set. The RV owners would have to drive out and provide their set to unlock it. Ok, fine. Stuff happens. We went grocery shopping nearby for the trip. We get back an hour or so later. Now it's time to check out, right? Not so fast. After some confusion and shuffling of papers, it became clear that they'd given us someone else's paperwork and misplaced ours. Wow. Ok. Eventually things got resolved. They gave us a tour of the vehicle, which was brand new by the way. Only driven once by the owners, who apparently were working with RV Northwest to rent it out when they weren't using it. We finally embarked upon our exciting RV tour of Oregon. Hooray! Our first stop was just a few hours East. About halfway there, the vehicle made a loud sound and displayed a warning light. The light was confusing, and quickly went off. We misinterpreted it to be a "dangerous conditions" indicator of some sort, because the highway was quite windy and we were being buffeted by cross-winds. The warning light had looked like symbols for wind and rain. We kept going and arrived at our campground at dusk. We parked, and then wanted to adjust our position in the parking spot which involved turning the RV back on. We did that, and the RV made the same sound it had made on the highway and flashed a number and a code. We did not know what this meant, so we started making dinner and googling error codes on our phones. It was an indicator that the Diesel Emissions Fluid was low, and the number it had flashed was a countdown. We had that many more engine starts before the engine would be disabled if we didn't correct the fluid situation. The number was something like 15, so we were not too worried. We settled in and called RV NW in the morning. Thus began our saga. Our sad, misled tour of Oregon mechanics who could not help us. On multiple occasions, RV Northwest folks instructed us to take measures that were not only inappropriate for the model RV we had, but caused greater problems. They sent us to two different technicians (a strong word in one case) in two different cities who couldn't help us due to the Mercedes chassis of the Navion, which they probably could have told RV NW had they asked! On the 3rd day of this hellish trip, as the countdown continued ominously, we finally found a Mercedes dealership ourselves in Medford who said they could fix it. But not immediately. So we drove there and spent 7 hours in the waiting area with our dog. At the end of that day, the dealership concluded that ***someone*** had contaminated the diesel emissions fluid in the vehicle, which is what caused the warning light in the first place. We will never know who did this, but it seems unlikely that it was the owners, and we had never even heard of DEF until all of this. So that leaves one likely possibility, eh? In other RV models, topping off that tank with water was fine. But in this brand new fancy one, it causes major problems! Hmmm. I wonder what happened at RV Northwest while we were all waiting for the owners to drive back with the keys? Whatever the source, the contamination broke the sensors, which is what continued the problem even after we tried to refill the DEF tank. The dealership could fix it, but not that day. At that point, the countdown was down to one. And, RV Northwest helpfully told us we could not leave the RV at the dealership or it would constitute abandoning the vehicle, thus violating the contract. So, we were faced with trying to live at a car dealership with our dog for an unknown number of days until the RV was fixed, or drive it 300 miles back to Portland without turning off the engine. We chose the latter, driving north on I5, playing the song The Final Countdown by Europe, wanting nothing to do with the folks at RV Northwest ever again. Except to get our money back. However, they never returned a call from us after the 2nd day of the trip. We had to dispute the credit card charge to get our money back, which we did.

    I had an amazing experience with Tami, Veronica, Olivia, and Kevin from RV Northwest! I rented a brand new RV from them for a whirlwind 2 week national park road trip and they gave me an amazing deal and even took mileage off my total bill! Great people, AWESOME customer service, I will use them in the future! Thank you so much!

    See all

    Veronica did everything to get us a motorhome in the last minute to be able to leave the next morning on our trip.

Definitely check before shopping for supplies.. we left some useful skewers and such for the next renter! Bedding was nice, came with standard cotton fitted sheet, flat sheet, a quilt and warmer microfiber blanket. Tons of storage under mattress, we also stowed our carry on bags in the center with no problem.

Well, we took delivery of our chariot the following month and set forth upon adventure. We felt like Lewis and Clark making the Kessel run in 12 parsec, but the hyperdrive worked flawlessly plus involved less portaging and/or cholera. Eating in the dining area kinda resembled that that scene in LOTR when Gandalf steps into Bilbo's house but oddly I discovered I kinda like feeling like a giant and regressed into eating my spaghetti with my hands while referring to my Apocalypse IPA as "Grog" (plus it had the added benefit as a defendable conclave against predators or gypsies). Sadly weather permitted the rest of our meals to be consumed in our camp chairs under Zeus's watchful eye. Bed was some space age super foamy thing crafted by magic gnomes, the furniture all folds into itself as if Optimus Prime got drunk and went slumming at IKEA. No complaints, these guys are top notch and we're already planning our next trip to Middle Earth or maybe the in-laws in Coeur D'Alene.

Sure there was a learning curve to most things, but that was part of the adventure. I also want to mention how professional the staff were with providing a safe environment with social distancing controls. They were very conscious of things and it made us feel quite comfortable. We had such a great experience that we're planning on renting again from this location!

We were using this RV for a wedding in 102-degree weather with no service so this is the worst case scenario. The local office in Sherwood was unbelievably unprofessional and rude before we rented the RV, and it just kept getting worse after. They sent us documentation of a refund they will give us to try and make up for the RV not working properly and we still have not received that refund. Ken from our local office will not return my calls or give me the promised call backs and the corporate office doesn't have a "call center" so they don't take any calls, instead they will email you in 10-15 business days. I wish I had known this before renting from them, buyer beware!! They give you a bad product and don't stand by it.
