    Cracks on James Baroud Evasion

    The ones that go through the bottom of the fiberglass tent into the rails and then the load bars. The bolts with the U clamps that came with the RTT. Funny, that's what the guy at AR is asking. What other bolts are there?

    I haven't been ab;e to reach anyone with information about sealant used on the bolts. Or re-torquing for that matter. Does anyone here use a sealant? Or find they had to re-torque bolts after the initial break-in?

    N.J. installed mine in January 2019. I see what you are saying now. How many people were sold demos? Were they defective or just not up to standards? No one will ever know unless you do start a thread. When you do I'll be there. Thanx for the info on the user guide. I just sent out an...

    Cracks on James Baroud Evasion

    That is really interesting that you brought that up, Van. I was wondering about that myself, as far as what I got as a tent from the original retailer in NJ. When the new tent came, it came with a cover, with decals on the sides and has no flaw and is not a lemon. I wondered what I was sold...

    Thank you for the info ttengineer, I actually got a return email from Antonio in Portugal yesterday. Social media pressure is all I can figure. He told me the same as he told you- thought it had been taken care of already. I asked where dealers were but didn't get an answer, he just said we...

    Hey, Thank you for the update. Can't believe they put a hole through it and delivered it to the dealer anyway without letting them know... Also sorry to hear you're going on 7 months, I'm at 5 months. Maybe it's just me, but Baroud should eat the $200 difference in price you paid for the...

    Hi TTengineer, I was wondering if you ever got the warranty issue solved and the new RTT. How could they tell you to get a tent replaced by company in Washington when you live in Georgia?

    I spoke too soon. Here it is January and many emails to Baroud with absolutely no response. I have no idea who any of their vendors are besides Adventure Ready. Portugal asked me to wait until November for the new dealer to get stock in. Once again, the c.s. is completly sh__. Calling...

    I know Baroud in Portugal shut down for the entire month of August- it's a national holiday. I too, have emailed with JB and was told I could get a replacement and to please wait for November. Quote: "We have a new dealer, he has no tents in stock yet, will receive the first container in...

    Anything changing with James Baroud?

    Like I said: https://www.jamesbaroudusa.com/dealers/ Maybe this needs to be a different topic as we are way off base from cracks in the RTT.

    Anything changing with James Baroud?

    The confusing thing is that almost everyone speaks only about OK4WD (East Coast) and Adventure Ready (West Coast). @ttengineer - Try this and hope there is someone close to you. https://www.jamesbaroudusa.com/dealers/. Where you buy one is where you go if you have warranty issues. That can turn...

    Anything changing with James Baroud?

    All I can think of is they are super busy, especially if they are the only dealer. I was able to get a pm to them on this board, maybe try that.

    Anything changing with James Baroud?

    I talked to Antonio in Portugal. I'm quoting : "We have a new dealer, he has no tents in stock yet, will receive the first container in November." So, maybe there is a new dealer besides Adventure Ready.

    I wanted to update. James Baroud offered a full replacement when they came back from vacation. I am surprised but relieved. We discussed some possible issues but mostly since the tent was having so many of them, they just said they will ship a new one and I really appreciate it. Perhaps it...

    Wow, look at that. Maybe I will contact them direct and see what they have changed. I was hesitant to stick holes into the tent when if putting a pad there. I'll let ya know what they say.
