2000: “On 10/15/02 while driving my rv to a campground, I detected a very strong odor of antifreeze inside the rv and noticed wetness on the carpet near the fire wall. It rendered the defrosting of the front windshield nil and couldn't hardly see outside and damage the side compartment of the r.v. The unit was under warranty and monaco replaced the damaged heater core on 12/23/02. On 1/20/08 on a trip to orlando the same problem occurred again. I almost passed out at the wheel because of the strong odor of antifreeze leaking again inside the coach. Same problem: spited heater core. …”
