While the RV was parked, the contact inspected the RV and crawled under the RV and noticed that the frame had several cracks.

The RV was taken to the dealer where it was confirmed that the frame had cracks above the axle. The dealer informed the contact that the RV could not be repaired and was a total loss. The contact notified the insurance company, who declined to file a report due to the damage being a factory defect. The RV remained at the dealer unrepaired.
