What owners report
Short excerpts of NHTSA complaints in the original wording. These are owner statements not verified by NHTSA; personal data removed.
To keep it from happening again we zip tied the lock to the door handle as shown in the picture attached. We live in the motorhome and were fearful of entrapment since that is the only man door
On 8/9/23 my diesel RV on a Freightliner chassis threw a 3664 code for a bad Diesel Exhaust Fluid sensor. Lucky I was only 20 miles from home and made it home before the engine derated. I could have easily been stranded on the side of the interstate putting myself and my family in danger.
Front generator sliding door is too low and has poor latching causing the door to hit small humps / inclines then open later at an unintended time. Twice I have blocked traffic trying to get it back under the coach after seemingly random openings. Repair costs for this poor design is ridiculous. It is a road hazard.
