“I have a Workhorse chassis with a brake problem. Sounds like action # peo732. I noticed during a trip to florida in april that the brakes smelled hot at the rear of motorhome during refueling. During my trip to salt lake city august 1st, 2007. My brake pedal would go to the floor and not come back up or release the brakes, I used my toes to bring pedal back up. In utah I had a diagnostic center look at the problem, they determined it to be a bad booster pump. They replaced the pump and pedal would come back up and release the brakes, but still had a soft pedal. …”

“Consumer received safety recall 50901-c for work horse chassis. Consumer states that his motor home has many problems. The consumer stated the brakes have been a major problem since purchasing the rv and they only worked normal about 70-80% of the time. The consumer stated he purchased all of the calipers at his expense, because no one wanted to take responsibility for the problem and now a recall has been issued. The power steering leaked at the weld of the rear housing, and the cruise control was repaired twice, but it never stayed fixed.”
