Gleason's Salinas RV

Gleason's Salinas RV is an RV repair shop based in Salinas, California, operating since 1986. You bring the RV to their shop at 302 Commission Street, and if they cannot finish the same day, they will let you stay connected to their electricity in the parking lot overnight rather than leave you stranded.

They work on motor homes along with boat, horse, utility, and agriculture trailers. Their list covers warranty-covered repairs, body damage, frame repair, remodeling, electrical problems, appliance issues, generator repairs, and suspension upgrades for handling and stability. They stock and service Onan generators, Blue Ox towing systems, and Banks power-enhancement parts, and they also do custom welding and fabrication, including Hydralift motorcycle lift installs, which they say makes them "the nation's largest Hydralift motorcycle lift installer" with over 100 completed.

One reviewer on their site notes "their price is $199,00/hour." They take same-day emergency repairs when they can fit you in. Hours are Monday through Friday, 8:00 am to 5:00 pm, closed weekends. No trip fee, diagnostic fee, or service radius is published, so ask about those specifics when you call.

Certified technicians handle the diagnostics and repairs, and the shop also takes on warranty repairs and insurance claim work, which matters if your fridge or slide-out failure is covered and you don't want to fight the paperwork alone. Google rates them 4.2 stars from 91 reviews.

This is a good fit for an owner in Salinas or Monterey County who can get the rig to the shop, especially for electrical gremlins, frame or body damage, suspension trouble, or a Hydralift install, and who wants a place that will let them sleep on-site if the fix runs past closing.
