😣 We agree with you 100%!!!!

Tell that dealership you got a lemon.

I’m so sorry for all you’re going through. You should sell and buy an air stream like outdoors inn and make the back office into a bedroom for Dash. Perfect for you!

Daniel in a Down Jacket... Dash... just a diaper 😂. Hang in there guys!

Any time you have that much water in back . The problems will never end. Good luck. With forty years in the business. Hated electrical gremlins.

That is what my husband keeps saying too that it is all related to that and will need a whole new wiring harness?

Its time for LEMON LEMON LEMON LAW If I were you I would b e so pissed off, they would have to throw me out of an Airstream Dealership. Make them take it b ack to get a Grech. All I have to say. God Bless you both.

I agree this is a lemon , they should take it back, the price they paid , this is time to turn the page , get something else , ridiculous

I hope you are staying safe from Hurricane / Tropical Storm Hilary. 🙏🏻

I’m in shock!! You should get every penny you spent and some for your expenses and inconvenience!! Bless you 🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️

As an Airstream owner I always thought the vans were way over priced but I wanted one - beautiful but way out there -now maybe you guys got the 1 in a 1000 that turned out to be a TURD - a 200,000 plus turd - I guess we will live with our trailer- and can’t wait to see what the future brings you guys 🍻

This is just an embarrassment for Mercedes and whoever done the build out.

They should be embarrassed for spending 200 grand on a vehicle🙄

This is just so sad and bad. I wonder if the water damage somehow killed your electronics. Daniel, don't worry about showing your distress. This is real life and, right now, it sucks. You, Lauren and Dash will be fine. That's the important thing. Don't know about the van but y'all are fine. Not sure when this was uploaded but praying that Tropical storm Hillary isn't causing any problems for you. Sending prayers for y'all from middle Tennessee.

Can't wait to hear what the fix/fixes are for everything. I't most unfortunate what you've had to deal with but I dont think you're up to lemon status. Here in Texas it's one thing breaking three times then written notice for one more attempt. Not sure it applies to a motorhome or just regular vehicles. More than likely does not include motorhomes. Your other repairs seem like normal AS repairs from lack of attention in assemble. I've had my current trailer 3.5 years and usually have something to fix at the end of each outing or during a trip. May your Disney crack heal soon.

I don’t know you personally, but I am in tears I feel so upset that you’re going through this. I see Lauren with baby - Daniel trying his best. You don’t deserve this and it’s gotten me so upset I’m in tears. I just want to buy you a new vehicle so you can give this one back. I love this family you’re such a good example of what family looks like you don’t deserve this. I am so sorry you’re going through this that it breaks my heart

Oh man, this is too much. Bravo Zulu on your patience and temperment. I will say this, you three deserve some kind of compensation for what you have endured with purchasing this 🍋. I am happy to see that there are people out there to make sure you get to somewhere safely. I am hoping that you will if it's in the cards get a more reliable RV that has more space. But you three are in my 🙏🏽 and wishing you the best. Hugs for baby Dash!

I bet y'all are missing the truck and the old Airstream travel trailer!! Trade that lemon in and get something else ASAP!

I hope all works out . I also hope your Airstream/Mercedes covers all the additional costs. Stay well

Praying the van gets fixed so y’all can get back to having fun! ❤❤❤

In our culture, we sacrifice something when we get something new, like new home, new car, etc. We broke 4 eggs on the tires when we got our new Airstream Atlas in March 😊

Gotta say, when the van goes broke, it goes epic broke! Keep rolling with those surprises, your attitude really is the only thing you can control. Hugs to all of you!

You need to get rid of the van and go back to air stream trailer or better yet get a 5th wheel which would be more practical for a family with a toddler.

Are you sure you didn’t get a lemon? I understand the hail damage, but all the other systems damaged, and the emergency brake too? Those are major failures that rendered you ‘dead in the water’ with no way of going anywhere. Good luck. I pray you get everything resolved quickly. Love from Punta Gorda, Florida 💕☀️🌸🌻

I suspect the emergency brake is on a relay and with no chassis battery it's stuck on.

🙏I would be asking for them to pay for everything even the food you lost and expensive s before and now..for the brand not good p.r.I would go back .to rv.I hope it goes well

Airstream and mercedes should be ashamed of this vans performance or lack of.

The ‘auxiliary battery malfunction’, is that the secondary battery that is under the drivers seat? Not the one in front of the drivers seat that you opened up and charged , but the secondary one that is used to get it into neutral, brake off, etc?

Hi Lauren and Daniel, I can't believe what you guys have been threw with this van. Seriously I don't know I think I'd start looking for a new vehicle. It's pretty and all that but I mean one thing after another! I had so much fun watching baby Dash on this video. He is a little boy now and he was so cute getting involved when the tow truck guy came helping Daddy and I liked him stooping down to watch what the tow truck driver was doing. I mean he's very curious for his age. I'm praying all this ends well for you. I think after you get this all taken care of if you continue to have problems you seriously need to trade this van in because you bought a white lemon. Take care and good luck. Keep the Disney spirit. Love you guys! Julie ❤

I've had to flat-bed my trucks twice: I can totally understand. Good luck and stay safe.

On the rv is there a emergency starting button I think some do

Dash is such a cutie

You guys have a short in the engine area. The short is by the alternator and connects to the engine. This is my guess. The relays are in question also since they are connected to all of your malfunctions.

I guess your van is a lemon🥰

Great friend❤️plz stay positive… hugs to dash🥰

“There’s a crack in my Disney.” That says it all. My new favorite phrase. So sorry this has happened to y’all.

Airstreamers helping Airstreamers. That's what it's all about. Love it.

Your emergency brake is broken too! This is all terrible.

What the heck, Daniel wearing a puffer jacket and Dash is wearing a diaper!

Saw a video by another KZread couple, LivinRVision, that switched from a Class A to a Airstream 33FB to a Grech, similar to your model, but has a 4 cyl diesel, quieter A/C and same timberline system. It amazing to see difference in cost and mileage. Curious if the wiring and plumbing is similar between Grech and Airstream. Stay strong and keep seeking cool coffee locations. Dash is getting taller and growing out his hair like his parents. 😂

Thanks, Arvind! Coffee fixes a lot, but this particular day required a beer. 🤣

When my son was about 2 y old.He is 11 now. He loved to play by the front of the car while I was loading the car. One day when I started the car , everything seamed ok. I drove about 3 miles and window shields stared working like crazy without rain. When I stoped the car, the engine stoped working. After checking the car by our mechanic, the reason of this what happened was : My son while playing in front of the car placed a couple of coins into CD player slot. This was the reason why the car stopped working. It was costly to repair it and we had to replace a CD player. This is just what happened to us, it reminds me a little bit of your situation right now…. Wish You all the best! Good luck and stay strong! ❤

Airstream ought to be ashamed, all that money for this. I read the reviews on the Airstream Atlas and there are a lot of unhappy customers. Get your act together Airstream.

You guys are troopers, and with a baby in tow! Airstream should be ashamed of their recent quality. This isn't the first you tuber ive seen get a poor quality brand new Airstream. I hope you are treated right by them!

I’m almost afraid to watch tonight, please tell me that there is some light at the end of the tunnel. You two have been through so much. See you guys tonight

The van is done for. Prolly a few months in shop.

What can one say 🤷‍♀️ your patience, good natured personalities and optimism are to be applauded 👏. As for Mercedes/Airstream 🤬

Really think you should sell the Airstream Van and purchase an Airstream Trailer (recommend at least a Classic 30') with towing vehicle (Dodge Ram 2500 Diesel). You will find that the van will break down all the time and you will loose your vehicle and home at the same time when the van breaks down.

So sorry all this going wrong. Hail thing is up to God but this breakdown sucks. The traveling RV vision peeps drive a Gretchen for a few yrs that they love. They’re product testing. Just an FYI. Deff consider a suit to make up for rental loses. Whenever they forecast severe weather w hail..take notice and cover before it hits. Thank God for your Angel... everyone has Uber. Lol. Keep us updated. 🤞✌️💕🌸 I suppose you could be there for Hurricane Hillary and the quake. 😳😬🙏🏻

Now the E-Break is gone too, this is insane 😮... Thank God for Ms. Julie... I hope they are picking up your hotel bill too. I hate to say just cause it's a Mercedes doesn't mean it's better.... Much luv from Colorado ❤️

Time to go back to the truck and airstream.

Are you back in the van yet? I learned just about everything in this video 8 days ago when I saw the "family photo" in the community section. This is almost as painful to watch in little dribs and drabs a week or more later as it was for you guys to live through it I suspect.

Unbelievable a Mercedes fell apart like that. I have had several and never had a problem. Knock on wood. Sending love and prayers for a great outcome.

This is painful to watch. I can’t imagine living this nightmare. We need some update on the resolution from airstream because this is 2 months of complete nonsense.

How you guys have not eaten 1,000 cupcakes over this I will never know!

Airstream so needs to just take that lemon and provide a replacement

Grech seems to have better reviews

😊👍🌹

That van is a lemon.

Need a replacement.

OMG...Inwould be calm the first time something went wrong and maybe the second time but this is ridiculous. I would be in a crumbled ball crying in the corner

Grech

Hoping for good ending to this story. 🤞

Is it too soon to sale this thing and go back to your 30ft travel trailer?

There's a definite Crack in my Disney!

OMG, well I didn't get to catch y'all live tonight. You both are amazing under that much stress. I am very impressed. I would have gained 10# just from cortisol spikes haha!!!!! First, I have to say Dash is getting soooooo BIG! So dang adorable!!!!!! Okay, now. LEMON LAW!!!! Can you guys just have Mercedes pay you for all the coating you have had done and give you a new unit? Maybe fly back to Wyoming and get it from them? Idk about Cali, they have so many taxes even if you live somewhere else. Anyway. Enjoy the hotel shower and wonder local 😉. Oh BTW.

That’s to bad , sounds like you got a lemon

I am so confused about your situation. My wife and I both actually. Did I miss something. Did you actually try replacing your two chassis batteries? And that did not work? We enjoy watching your channel. We remember that your batteries had been drained to dead previously, That was the house batteries and that caused your fridge to stop functioning and led to a very unpleasant nasty situation. Was your Chassis batteries over discharged at the Airstream dealership. If so are they owning up to any of your situation as well. Personally I think that any trailer, van camper, should be parked into a repair parking that has shore power, so that the batteries are not abused. Honestly I think that a dealership should also have the same while units are sitting awaiting sale. Please advise whether you had made an effort to replace your batteries. Seems like a KZread video and and $500 max for two Chassis batteries would have been the first thing to try. But that may not have made for a dramatic storyline.

Get a Gretch. Use the lemon laws of Florida. Be done with the demon Van. ;).

Return the van tell airstream you were given a lemon. Get a truck and a classic airstream.
