GEORGIE BOY Complaints

DT: THE CONTACT STATED THE OWNER'S MANUAL INDICATED THE WRONG PLACEMENT OF CERTAIN COMPONENTS ON THE VEHICLE. WHILE DRIVING THE MOTOR HOME HE PLACED THE VEHICLE INTO GEAR, BUT IT WOULD NOT GO OUT OF SECOND GEAR. THERE WAS NO WAY TO STOP THE VEHICLE. HE HAD TO TURN OFF THE IGNITION SO THE BRAKES WOULD WORK. THE HEADLIGHT SWITCH BECAME SO HOT IT ALMOST MELTED THE DASHBOARD. THE EMERGENCY FLASHERS DID NOT WORK. ONCE THE ENGINE WAS SHUT DOWN THERE WAS NO RESERVE POWER IN THE BATTERY TO OPERATE EMERGENCY ITEMS. THE MOTOR HOME HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED. *AK

DT: THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN SHIFTING INTO A LOWER GEAR THE SHIFTER WILL HIT THE KEY IN THE IGNITION AND TURN THE VEHICLE OFF. THIS SITUATION HAS OCCURRED EIGHT TIMES. HE WAS UNABLE TO GET ASSISTANCE FROM THE DEALERSHIP OR MANUFACTURER TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM LOOKED AT AND RESOLVED. *AK

DT: 2004 GEORGIE BOY CRUSH AIR - CHASSIS FREIGHTLINER XC. THIS IS A FULL AIR BRAKES UNIT, SOMEONE HAS CROSSED THE TWO AIR LINES TO REAR AXLE UNDER TENSION, AND ONE SAWED THE OTHER THROUGH IN 9300 MILES, THE OTHER WITHIN ITSELF WAS NEARLY THROUGH. THIS IS AN METAL ARMORED CABLE, AND THIS WAS AT THE INITIAL BUILD. THIS CAUSES THE AIR PRESSURE TO DROP FROM 125 POUNDS WHICH IS NORMAL TO LESS THAN 60 WITHIN 30 SECONDS, COMPLETE AIR LOSS. THIS CAUSES THE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO GO OFF, NO MATTER WHAT SPEED ONE WAS TRAVELING. THIS DID NOT CAUSE ANY ACCIDENTS ONLY BECAUSE CONSUMER HAD HAND ON THE EMERGENCY BRAKE OVERRIDE. *AK

HI, I JUST PURCHASED A GEORGIE BOY CRUISE MASTER 2004. THE ORIGINAL AXLE WEIGHTS ARE AS FOLLOWS: IGHT FRONT = 3485, LEFT FRONT = 3620, RIGHT REAR = 5320, LEFT REAR = 6240. THE LEFT SIDE WEIGHS 9,860. THE RIGHT SIDE WEIGHS 8,805. THE LEFT SIDE WEIGHTS 1,055 POUNDS MORE THAN THE RIGHT SIDE. IS THE VEHICLE SAFE TO DRIVE WITH THESE AXLE WEIGHTS? WHAT PROBLEMS COULD BE CREATED BY THESE AXLE WEIGHTS? THESE ARE QUESTIONS I CANNOT ANSWER. WHEN I CALLED GEORGIE BOY THE REPRESENTATIVE OFFER NO SOLUTION. THE VEHICLE NOTICABLY LEANS TO THE LEFT. I DON'T WANT TO FLIP IN ORDER TO MAKE THIS AN ISSUE THAT IS PROPERLY ADDRESSED. THANK YOU FOR YOUR REPLY.*AK
