I see RV Complete warranty has many, many vague terms, loop-hole conditions to deny such reimbursement of repairs. If so, I will use bail on them, with their 30-day money-back clause. Is this all normal? Instant DEF problems, huge bills, unusable extended warranties? Shall I top off DEF tank every fill-up? Going on road trip soon and wondering. Thanks.

I was warned by a garage that I had not been using DEF.
Carbon accumulation was the result.
As I have always kept DEF topped up - I protested as to the accuracy of cause.
They then said I should accelerate hard to burn off the carbon.
I live in Colorado - plenty of hard use climbing hills.
I opened mail the next day -/wow oh wow
A letter dated July 21 2021 from Mercedes Benze.
Warrenty extension to a total of 11 years or 120,000 miles. REGARDLESS OF OWNERSHIP !!!!
This covers the replacement of Exhaust Gas Turbocharger
If repairs have already been carried out, you may revive reimbursed by prentation of documentary evidence to your Mercedes Dealership.
