“The slider on a four slider motorhome will not come in many times. I drive alone, and my safety is at risk if I can't pull in the sliders and leave. Three to four people have to lift and push and jerk in the slider. I can not use this rv because of fear and the slider does not fully close. Four or 5 times to dealer, their statement, they have no clue. Also in aaa motorhome magazine this is a major problem, Fleetwood is hiding from the public. I was stuck in mexico and montana away from all mechanical help, except those who we could gather up. …”
