The Buyer has had the opportunity to inspect the RV, to operate every system and appliance, and to commission an independent RV inspection at the expense of the Buyer, and accepts the RV in its present condition whether or not those steps were taken. The Seller makes no representation about the condition of the roof, seals, sidewalls, floor, plumbing, propane system, or electrical system, or about the absence of mold or delamination, beyond the disclosures made in Section 2. Any remaining manufacturer, chassis, or extended service warranty transfers only if the provider permits it, and the Seller makes no promise that it will. This provision does not excuse intentional misrepresentation about known water intrusion, structural damage, or accident history.
