Now.... this is what bothered me with the call. The Rep told me that he "highly suggest to me to take the RV to have the oil change done at the FORD Dealership, as it is new and it is still under warranty". I was told the If I do my own oil change, that "may void" the warranty. WTF???

Issue I have with me taking the RV to Ford is that there are only 3 Ford Dealerships in Las Vegas area. No one want to work on an RV because the RV DO NOT fit their work area. So what now???

Can they really void warranty of we do our own oil change? (even if we purchase the oil filter and oil from Ford Dealership to prove we used the correct oil filter and oil grade)?
Make sure you save your receipts for all materials and record the date, time and mileage of when you changed the oil and filter. Use parts that meet or exceeds Ford's specifications and you will be good to go. The Magnuson Moss Warranty Act covers this topic.
