The L shaped bracket that supports the RV hydraulic/motor assembly for the auto leveling system has failed. The weld between two pieces of steel that makes up the bracket has failed. When the bracket fails the assembly is supported temporarily by electrical wires and hydraulic hoses. If it fails further and drags the road or separates completely, there is a possibility of fire under the vehicle and/or death or injury to other drivers on the road. There other safety recalls for this exact failure but my unit was not listed.

The tire pressure monitoring system fails frequently while being driven. The first few times I pulled off the road and checked the pressures, and they were normal.

Believing that they can't do anything I keep driving and manually checking pressures. Problem returns.…

The component that failed was the driveline on our RV. Specifically, the driveline was installed at an incorrect angle, which caused excessive vibrations and loud noises while driving at highway speeds. The improper driveline angle posed a serious safety risk to my family and others on the road. The vibrations were severe enough to affect vehicle handling and stability, especially at higher speeds. There was also concern that the continued stress could lead to mechanical failure or component separation, which could result in loss of control o…
