Austgen Fleet Maintenance
Griffith RV and trailer shop with mobile service, praised for same-day repairs and clear communication.
A torn awning fabric can turn a calm trip into a wrestling match with a flapping sheet of vinyl. In Griffith, the repair options are thin: one shop handles awning work, and it also runs mobile calls. That matters when the awning is jammed half out and the rig shouldn't move. Here's who to call and what to ask before you book.

Austgen Fleet Maintenance is the one Griffith shop listed for awning repair, and it carries a 4.5 rating across 57 reviews. It also handles fridge work and mobile service, plus generator, chassis and parts. It's the kind of place that can look at the awning arms while the rig is in for something else. Ask whether the replacement fabric or arm parts are in stock before you haul the RV over, since a special order can sit for days. One shop for a whole town means schedules fill. Call ahead, especially in spring when everyone remembers last season's damage.
Because this shop runs mobile service, you have a choice for awning problems. A stuck or half-deployed awning is often safer fixed where it sits than towed down the road with fabric loose. Mobile work costs more in call-out time but saves the trip. For a full fabric replacement, the shop bay usually wins because there's room to stretch and align the new material. Ask on the phone which one fits your job and whether the tech carries common awning hardware.
Griffith itself lists just the one shop, but six more are within reach in nearby towns. That's worth knowing if the local bay is booked or you need a second opinion on a big insurance claim. Ask about warranty pre-approval before any work starts, since one Griffith shop does warranty work and the others may handle it differently. Get the approval in writing so there's no surprise on the bill.

Yes. One local shop means limited slots, and spring fills fast once owners start prepping for the season. Call early, ask if the fabric or parts are in stock, and confirm warranty pre-approval in writing before the work begins.
