2001 FLEETWOOD PACE ARROW Complaints

DEALER DID NOT INSPECT TIRES. SOLD US AN RV WITH 10 YEAR OLD TIRES. WE BLEW THREE TIRES ON OUR FIRST ROAD TRIP WHILE DRIVING ON A FOUR LANE HIGHWAY. WE PAID $1700 FOR A DELIVERY INSPECTION. EVEN WITHOUT THIS I WOULD IMAGINE THAT RV DEALERS SHOULD DO A SAFETY INSPECTION. WE DID NOT KNOW THAT TIRES HAD MANUFACTURE YEAR MODELS ON THEM.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2001 FLEETWOOD PACE ARROW MOTOR HOME WITH A WORKHORSE W22 CHASSIS. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED AND THEY OVERHEATED. HE DROVE ONTO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND WAITED A HALF HOUR FOR THE BRAKES TO COOL OFF. THE CONTACT REFERENCED RECALL 09V110000, SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER THREE TIMES WHO REPLACED THE CALIBERS, ROTORS AND THE BRAKE PADS. THE FAILURE CONTINUED TO OCCUR. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 21,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 44,000.

CONSUMER STATES, VEHICLE SEAT BELT LATCH DOES NOT LOCK. IT COMES UN HOOKED IF SOMETHING HIT AGAINST IT. DEALER NOTIFIED. PLEASE PROVIDE ADDITIONAL INFORMATION. PH

INSTALL FOUR TIRE VALVE EXTENDERS ON BOTH FRONT TIRES AND THE TWO OUTRIDE REAR TIRES TO MAKE CHECKING TIRE PRESSURE EASIER. EXPERIENCE THREE FLATS AND ONE BLOWOUT
