“I was driving the motorhome up the driveway at my home and had noticed very weak braking on my return trip from refueling the vehicle (5 miles) as I pulled into the driveway up a hill and towards my home, I engaged the brakes as I got closer and the pedal pushed right to the floor. I pumped it a few time, and did get some braking, with considerable immediate fade. I was able to bring the vehicle to a stop by activating the emergency brakes. Exiting the vehicle, I found a large stream of brake fluid on the driveway surface. …”

“While looking at a new Fleetwood Bounder motor home in a show room in manassas, va , I happened to remember about my friend's brake defect on his new motor home on a freightliner chassis. So I knelt down and found the cotter pin ready to fall out of this brake pedal mounting, just like his did. I immediately notified the saleperson of this problem. Freightliner should have notified them before I did.”
