how difficult is it to get older roadtrek parts

Hi, during Roadtrek's financial difficulties a mobile home dealership near them purchased their spare parts inventory. You may be able to find anything you need at Mobilife RV Centre - Kitchener, Ontario - Trailer & RV Sales

It's not difficult to find replacement parts for an older Roadtrek, It's Impossible! I have a 1999 Dodge Roadtrek 190 Popular and when I try to find parts for it, all I see is the word "discontinued" every where I look.
It's a real good idea to stay a way from any Roadtrek that is 10 years old or older.

This is an old thread, but there was a recent one with a similar question, so I'll also reply here to this post saying that it's impossible to find replacement parts for older Roadtreks. That is not my experience with my 27 year old Roadtrek 170. It takes some effort and is not always cheap, but I have had good success finding parts, both for the van and for the rv. It is worth it for me because these are great RV's. I don't think that there is anything like them being made today.

I bought a 2017 Zion in the spring and I love it!

It is a 550 kilometre drive from our home to Mobilife in Kitchener, Ontario that we have made on multiple occasions since we bought our RT in 2012.
IMO, local RV repair shops don’t have the knowledge or experience with older roadtreks to merit our trust. Mobilife has a Roadtrek service section managed by a former employee of the Roadtrek factory that made our RT. The Mobilife technicians are both knowledgeable and experienced.
We are headed there later this summer to have them service our RT

That is my experience too. So I do almost all the work on my Roadtrek myself. But, to be fair, everything is packed together so closely under my 170 that it isn't always easy to get to everything without pulling things apart -- I can do it even if it takes a long time, but most mechanic shops won't.

Lol … Your statement actually reflects what a local mechanic told me in 2014 when he was working on my RT: “I hate working on these units because they are so small”.
