Call with your RV details before bringing it in.
An impact can leave more than body damage.
A scraped panel may be obvious. A new vibration, warning light or steering problem needs attention too. At Universal Motorcars, our Post Road team can assess the body damage and mechanical concerns together, then explain the work your RV needs.

“Every time, they’ve come back looking flawless — perfect paint match, no giveaways.”

Look beyond the scrape.
The mark you can see is the starting point. A useful estimate also considers how the affected panels fit, what attaches them to the RV and whether the impact reached surrounding areas.
Fiberglass & aluminum bodywork
We assess cracked, dented or damaged exterior material and explain whether repair or replacement is appropriate. The material, damage and condition behind the panel guide that decision.
Panels, bumpers & exterior compartments
Bring us concerns about damaged body panels, bumper areas or compartment doors. We inspect the affected parts and attachments, then confirm the work and parts needed for your particular RV.
Paint matching & refinishing
The repair plan includes the existing finish and the surrounding paint. We review color, condition and the area that needs refinishing, including any stripes or graphics affected by the bodywork.
Structural & mounting damage
Collision work can require evaluation behind the exterior panels. We document affected supports and mounting areas and confirm the repair scope before structural work proceeds.
What happens to the paint and graphics?
A repair can cross more than one color or run through a stripe. We look at that before agreeing on the refinishing scope, so you understand which areas need attention.
Bring any paint codes, graphics information and details of previous repairs. For example, Winnebago publishes model-year paint guides. The correct vehicle information helps narrow the search.
If replacement graphics or body parts are difficult to source, we discuss the available options and their effect on appearance, cost and timing before you authorize the work.
Insurance claim or self-pay? Start here.
Help with your RV insurance estimate
Bring the insurer’s estimate if you already have one. Our team compares it with the inspected damage, documents the findings and communicates with the adjuster about the repair.
If authorized inspection reveals additional accident-related damage, we prepare a supported supplement: a request to add the necessary work to the estimate, with photographs and repair information.
Tell us your insurer and claim number when you call. We explain the proposed repair work and costs; your insurer decides coverage and payment under the policy. Before repairs begin, clarify your deductible and any work you are choosing to pay for yourself. An insurer’s estimate or payment does not replace your repair authorization.
Self-pay body and mechanical repairs
You can bring your RV to Universal Motorcars and pay directly. Tell us about the damaged area, paint concern or mechanical problem you want assessed.
We explain the recommended scope and available options after inspection. If you have a budget or a departure date in mind, share it early so we can discuss practical priorities.
Additional work needs a clear explanation and your authorization. We do not hide an unresolved safety or structural concern inside a cosmetic repair.
Know what happens next.
Photos help start the conversation. The repair estimate begins with an in-person inspection at Post Road, after we confirm your RV and plan its arrival.
-
Inspect the visible damage
We review the affected areas, your concerns and any existing estimate, then explain the initial findings and next steps.
-
Authorize a closer inspection
When needed, authorized disassembly gives access to damage hidden behind panels or trim. We document what changes the repair plan.
-
Confirm scope, parts & approvals
We review repair versus replacement, source the required parts and materials, and communicate supported additions to the insurer or directly to you for self-pay work.
-
Complete repairs & final checks
Bodywork, refinishing and reassembly follow the agreed plan. Final checks cover the repaired areas, fit and finish, and applicable affected components before handover.
Mechanical repairs for your RV, too.
Universal Motorcars handles RV mechanical repairs at Post Road, including problems that arise without an accident. Tell us what has changed, when you first noticed it and any recent repair history.
After an impact: report new leaks, warning lights, pulling, vibration or changes in braking. We investigate the affected systems and document findings that may relate to the accident. A problem noticed afterward is not automatically accident damage or covered by insurance. Unrelated wear, maintenance and breakdown repairs are discussed separately, with their own scope and authorization.
Engine & transmission
Diagnosis and repair for engine, transmission and drivability problems, including starting issues, power loss, shifting concerns and fluid leaks.
Brakes, steering & suspension
Brake repairs, steering and suspension work, and alignment concerns. Tell us about pulling, vibration, unusual noises or changes in handling.
Cooling & air conditioning
Engine-cooling and air-conditioning diagnosis and repair. Describe overheating, leaks or a loss of cooling, and identify the affected system. Confirm coach or rooftop equipment with us before scheduling.
Electrical diagnosis & repairs
Electrical troubleshooting and repairs for faults affecting your RV. Share warning messages, starting or charging problems and any work recently performed.
Your RV repair questions, answered.
Start with what changed. These answers help you plan an inspection with Universal Motorcars at 3570 W Post Rd, Las Vegas, NV 89118.
Mechanical problems: heat, shifting and cooling
My motorhome is overheating in Las Vegas. Can I drive it to you?
Do not keep driving an overheating motorhome to reach the shop. Move to a safe stopping place, follow the engine or chassis manual’s warning instructions and arrange assistance. Never open a hot cooling-system pressure cap. Once safely parked, note the warning message, whether it happened at idle or on a grade, any visible leak and whether the RV was towing. We diagnose the cause before recommending repairs; desert heat alone does not identify the failed part.
My RV transmission slips or will not reverse. Does it need replacement?
The symptom alone cannot decide that. Tell us which gears are affected, whether it happens cold or after driving, and about warning messages, leaks or recent service. Diagnosis determines the fault and whether a repair or replacement is appropriate. Do not assume a fluid change will solve it or keep driving to test a slipping transmission. Call to discuss inspection and transportation.
Is a dashboard A/C problem the same as a rooftop RV air-conditioning problem?
No. Identify whether the problem is at the driving-area vents or the living-area unit, and tell us the equipment make and model if known. Our Post Road mechanical team handles vehicle air-conditioning concerns. For rooftop or other coach equipment, confirm the specific service before scheduling. This helps us plan the right assessment instead of treating every loss of cooling as the same repair.
After an impact: handling, warning lights and coverage
My motorhome pulls or vibrates after an accident. Is an alignment enough?
An alignment should not be assumed to fix impact damage. New pulling, an off-center steering wheel, vibration or changed braking calls for inspection of the affected wheels, steering, suspension and mounting areas. Tell us which corner was hit and when the symptoms started. We use the findings to establish the repair scope. If handling or braking is unsafe, arrange professional recovery instead of driving to Post Road.
A warning light appeared after the collision. What information should I save?
When safely parked, photograph the exact warning and note when it appeared: immediately after impact, after towing or later. Bring any diagnostic report and recent repair history. A light or fault code is a starting point for testing, not proof of a failed part or insurance coverage. Follow the chassis manual’s instructions; a stop-engine warning or impaired braking needs immediate attention, not a drive to the shop.
Will my RV insurance pay for mechanical problems found after an accident?
Coverage depends on the cause, findings and your policy. Accident-related mechanical damage may be considered with the collision repair, but discovering a problem afterward does not establish that the impact caused it. We document supported findings and discuss any additional estimate with the adjuster. Unrelated breakdowns, maintenance and wear are considered separately. Ask about any mechanical-breakdown plan, deductible and diagnostic or teardown authorization; your insurer or plan administrator decides coverage. Self-pay repairs are welcome.
Estimates, bodywork and planning your visit
Can you assess my motorhome, travel trailer or fifth wheel?
Call Universal Motorcars at 702-430-1000 for RV service at 3570 W Post Rd, Las Vegas, NV 89118. This is the facility for the RV collision, body and mechanical repairs described here. Share the year, manufacturer, model, RV type and overall dimensions. We confirm vehicle access and the requested work before scheduling, including for travel trailers and fifth wheels.
Can you estimate the repair from photos?
Photos help us plan your visit, but they cannot establish a mechanical fault or all hidden damage. Send an overall view and close-ups. A preliminary visual body estimate is different from diagnostic testing or disassembly. Before authorizing that work, confirm the diagnostic charge, what it includes and when further approval is needed. The repair estimate follows the findings; we do not quote a universal RV repair price.
I already have an insurance estimate. What should I bring?
Bring the estimate, claim number and adjuster’s contact details. We compare the listed work with the damage we inspect. If additional accident-related repairs are supported by the findings, our team documents them and prepares a supplement for the insurer’s review. Approval and payment depend on the claim.
Does a cracked fiberglass panel always need replacement?
No. The location and extent of the damage, the panel’s construction and the condition of its attachments help determine the repair. We evaluate repair versus replacement after inspection, including any damage behind the visible crack and the availability of suitable parts.
What if the original paint or graphics are no longer available?
Tell us about previous paintwork and bring any paint-code or graphics information you have. We assess the existing finish and check available materials or replacement graphics before settling on the repair scope. If an exact original graphic cannot be sourced, we explain the available options before you authorize that work.
Can I pay for body or mechanical repairs without an insurance claim?
Yes. Self-pay customers are welcome for bodywork, paint and mechanical repairs. Tell us about the damage or symptoms and your priorities. We explain the recommended work, repair options and any inspection or diagnosis needed before you approve the scope and cost.
Can you help me plan transportation to Post Road?
Call before booking a tow. Give us the RV’s location, dimensions, chassis information and whether it can roll, steer and brake. Confirm Post Road can receive it before dispatch. Your professional tow operator should follow the instructions for the exact chassis; motorhomes have different recovery requirements. Ask your roadside provider or insurer separately about towing coverage. Do not drive with unsafe handling, loose body sections or other safety concerns.
