Purchased a new Swift Challenger 580 in March 2010, and have had a terrible year with problems. At the moment we have no brake lights,againso we have to stay at home. Does anyone else have problems with their caravan. I have talked to someone at Swift and they don't want to know. What do i do or where do i go. The dealer is too busy to deal with my problem. Had a full service, took van out, lights were fine, hooked up to come home, no lights, so is this going to happen everytime i take the van out. Its very frustrating.

Appreciated this is probably a warranty problem, but first things first, have you checked both the cars electrics and the caravan plug?

Yes. Fault in the box at front under seat.

I have just had a very disappointing experience with my own dealer, and to get mine sorted out, I simply went to another Swift agent, sorted in no time. Can you not take it somewhere else.

At the time when Swift were taking an active part in this forum, I found I had lost my lights the night before we were due to go on holiday. Ash or Andy from Swift and several members on here went through various checks which was traced to a fuse in the car not the van. It has happened once more since then but not for a couple of years now - however I still keep a full set of spare car fuses just in case. I found the service from Swift to be first class - bear in mind that they were replying on here on a Saturday night from home when other manufacturers and dealers had closed down for the weekend. Are you aware that Swift now have their own forum - SwiftTalk - and you might get a better response there.

Good luck

Mike
