2007 240 Sundeck Instrument Problem

[donrey60]

Any advise? I have a 2007 240 Sundeck 32 hours on it. Running along just fine this afternoon and all of my gauges went dead except the tack. The Marine Max Dealer in Colorado that I bought it from has a useless service dept and I hesitate to even call them. I would appreciate any suggestions.

Wow, same exact thing we had. I had to shut down everything, switch off both batteries and then power everything back up, then it was OK. We also had the gauge lights refuse to shut off, and I had to do the same thing. Service is on there way next week but they won't find anything. They are too arrogant to really look for a cause, they think I'm nuts with all these problems. We have had service out way too many times and if there was a lemon law, I would return it.

Water in the cabin, leaks in the plubing, electrical problems, leaks in the transome, on and on and on.... Not the quality I expected from my first SeaRay

Frist time ya had a problem with the boat? Why is the dealership service worthless? Explain?
FYI.....Most boats that are new are 99% broke before hitting the sales lot

Re: 2007 240 Sundeck Instrument Problem

There is a lemon law for boats. It is called the Magnuson Moss Act and there are several law firms throughout the United States which will take your case on a contingency basis.

15 U.S.C. ?2304(4) states that ?if the product (or a component part thereof) contains a defect or malfunction after a reasonable number of attempts by the warrantor to remedy defects or malfunctions in such product, such warrantor must permit the consumer to elect either a refund for, or replacement without charge of, such product or part (as the case may be).? Courts have determined that a "reasonable number of attempts" could be as few as two (2) attempts. Please check with an attorney in your state for further details.

15 U.S.C. ?2308(1), ?No supplier may disclaim or modify any implied warranty to a consumer with respect to such consumer product if such supplier makes any written warranty to the consumer with respect to such consumer Product.? As such, Thunderbird is precluded from disclaiming implied warranties.

If you are forced to file suit and the Court determines that a ?reasonable number of attempts? were made to remedy the ongoing problems, you may be entitled to attorney fees pursuant to 15 U.S.C. ?2310(d)(2).
