Coachmen Galleria is a class B motorhome equipped with a 30 gallon freshwater tank that is mount to the underside of the vehicle on the driver side. the tank is made of plastic and held in place by a metal frame and the frame is bolted in place to the frame in the front and the back. two bolts in front and 2 bolts on back. As a was driving the vehicle. the 2 front bolts became lose and fell out, allowing the frame and water tank to fall to the pavement on interstate 95 south at a speed of 65 mph! The heavy tank and frame was plowing the asphalt along under my vehicle. It could have caused a serious accident!!! I was able to quickly move over to the emergency lane where I was protected by 2 police cars and towed away. My RV dealer indicated it will take 8 hours to dismantle the frame and plumbing and make the repair. I have not yet had it fixed I have heard of this same problem from other Coachmen Galleria owners on the Galleria Facebook page.
