Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“The steering on this motorhome is vague and while going over bumps there is extreme steering wheel movement. There is a feeling of a momentary loss of control when hitting bumps. I've never felt anything like it in any other car or motorhome. There are reoprts of the problem in various rv publications, including motorhome magazine, march issue. It is very dangerous to have a feeling of loss of steering control.”
