Example complaints
Body and structure: “I was driving southbound on loop 303 arizona at approx 60 MPH in the motorhome when vehicles passing started making hand gestures as if something was wrong with motorhome. I pulled the motorhome onto the shoulder of the roadway and upon exiting and beginning to check the outside of the motorhome I found on the driver side one of cargo doors outer skin had separated from the cargo door back to the hatch handle which had stopped the door skin from completely coming off. The cargo door was the first door on driver side front that is for the coach battery compartment. …”

Propane heater severely over heats under cabinet that is right next to oven/stove causing a fire hazard.

NHTSA complaint #11073492, filed 2018-02, 1,400 milesOther or unknown: “There is a electric privacy shade inside my RV for the windshield. My motor failed in the down position. I tried to get a replacement motor but none is available. I emailed the manufacturer of the shade and they gave me a replacement part number, this is where the safety issue comes in. The original motor has two memories built into it, four wires to control it. With the key off, while you are camping, you can press the SHADE down button and the shade will go down on its own and stop in the correct position. Same thing when you press the SHADE up button, this is memory ONE. …”
NHTSA complaint #11604663, filed 2024-07Transmission and drivetrain: “Transmission downshifted unexpectedly causing engine to rev beyond 4k rpms resulting in driver almost losing control. The only way to stop it was to push the gas pedal down which increased the rpms even more and adding to control issue. This occurred many times on hills with or without cruise control. Caused panic in the vehicle by passengers who thought the engine was going to explode and also that the brakes had failed. Ford says this is built in and cannot be changed. I say if you need the engine to slow you then you probably have under size brakes. …”
