MOTOR HOME NEVER HANDLED RIGHT FROM WHEN WE PICKED IT UP ON 11/11/08. AFTER ATTEMPTS TO ALIGN IT DID WORK AND ONE VERY NERVE RACKING TRIP-VERY DIFFICULT TO KEEP IT DRIVING STRAIGHT, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE REAR DRIVER SUSPENSION BEAM WAS BROKEN IN HALF. IT APPEARS TO BE A DESIGN FLAW. THE MANUFACTURE SENT NEW PARTS AND THE OLD ONES ARE AVAILABLE. IN ADDITION, THIS COACH HAD ISSUES WITH SENSORS FOR THE LEVELING JACK ALARMS(ALARM WENT OFF WHILE DRIVING) FUEL GAUGE SENSOR AND AIR BRAKE GAUGE ALSO FAILED ON THE SAME TRIP. *TR
ON CERTAIN MOTOR HOMES EQUIPPED WITH ATWOOD SEALED BURNER RANGES, THE RANGE AND SLIDE-IN BURNER TUBES LEADING FROM THE GAS MANIFOLD TO THE BURNER HEADS HAD A DEPRESSION OR 'KINK' IN THE EXTERIOR BEND RESTRICTING PROPER AIRFLOW AND GAS MIXTURE.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: THIS CONDITION COULD RESULT IN CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING.
Remedy: MONACO IS WORKING WITH ATWOOD TO HAVE THE TUBES REPLACED ON THESE RANGES. THE RECALL BEGAN ON DECEMBER 14, 2007. OWNERS MAY CONTACT ATWOOD AT 1-800-348-7418 OR MONACO AT 1-800-685-6545.
ON CERTAIN MOTOR HOMES, AN INCORRECT SCREW WAS USED TO INSTALL THE BLACK AND WHITE CRT BACK-UP MONITOR IN THE DASH. THE INCORRECT SCREWS ARE 1/4" LONGER THAN SPECIFIED AND MAY CONTACT A PC BOARD INSIDE THE MONITOR WHICH COULD POTENTIALLY HIT A HIGH VOLTAGE CIRCUIT ON THE PC BOARD OF APPROXIMATELY 10,000-13,000 VOLTS.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: IF THE SCREW MAKES CONTACT WITH THE HIGH VOLTAGE TRACER ON THE PC BOARD AND SOMEONE WOULD TOUCH THE SCREW HEAD WHILE THE POWER IS ON, AN ELECTRICAL SHOCK COULD OCCUR CAUSING INJURY.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE BACK-UP MONITOR TO VERIFY THE OPERATION OF THE MONITOR FREE OF CHARGE. IF THE MONITOR IS OPERATING PROPERLY, THE REPAIR WILL CONSIST OF REPLACING THE INCORRECT SCREW WITH THE SPECIFIED SCREW AND TESTING FOR PROPER OPERATION. IF THE MONITOR IS NOT OPERATING PROPERLY ON INITIAL INSPECTION, THE MONITOR WILL BE REPLACED USING THE CORRECT SCREW. THE RECALL BEGAN ON FEBRUARY 9, 2007. OWNERS MAY CONTACT MONACO AT 877-332-9239.
