What owners report
Short excerpts of NHTSA complaints in the original wording. These are owner statements not verified by NHTSA; personal data removed.
The cables and wires rub on the metal and cut through the protective coating on the cables and wires thus exposing them to contact the metal and causing a short, arc and fire. The heat then compromises all the other cables resulting in them also losing their protective coatings and fire results.
The contact stated that he noticed that the driver side window had an abnormal accumulation of moisture and fog. The contact stated that the failure would become worse during rainy weather. The manufacturer advised the contact that they could not assist.
01/14/07 returned rv to dealer for brake noise and vibration. 01/15/07 contacted the chassis manufacturer. The rep told me that there was no recall on the brake drums and that the brake drums were turned to about 10/1000 and that the rollers were cleaned and lubed due to corrosion found on the rollers.
