DRIVING HOME FROM POCONO, PA, OUR 2003 HOLIDAY RAMBLER MOTORHOME WITH A WORKHORSE W20 SERIAL , BUILT ON 9/02 DEVELOPED OVERHEATING REAR BRAKES. WE WERE TOWING A TRAILER WITH 4 WHEEL ELECTRIC BRAKES AND WEIGHTING ABOUT 3700#. FAILURE OCCURRED ABOUT 1.5 HRS INTO OUR TRIP. COACH HAS APPROXIMATELY 15K MILES. FIRST OCCURRENCE, DEVELOPED A SOFT BRAKE PEDAL DUE TO OVERHEATED BRAKE FLUID. MOTORHOME WAS BOUGHT ON 5/31/08 FROM FIRST OWNER. NO REPAIR HAS BEEN CARRIED OUT YET, BUT WILL INSPECT PADS/ROTORS AND REPLACE BRAKE FLUID.*TR

THERE WAS A SAFETY RECALL NO. 02V-237 MONACO FILE #R02204 TRUSS ASSEMBLY ON OUR 2003 HOLIDAY RAMBLER ADMIRAL SE RAP AND WE WERE ALLOWED TO PURCHASE IT AND DRIVE IT HOME WITHOUT BEING INFORMED.. THEY KNEW ABOUT IT SINCE THE ADMIRAL SE 2002 MODEL AND HAD STARTED THE RECALLS ON SEPTA OF 2002.. ON NOV 5 LAZY DAYS WAS NOTIFIED OF THE RECALL OF THE SAME TRUSS ASSEMBLY ON THE ADMIRAL SE 2003, AND WE PURCHASED IT FROM LAZY DAYS RV IN SEFFNER, FL ON NOV 23, 2002 AND LEFT FOR HOME AFTER A MONTH OF OTHER REPAIRS THERE ON DEC 21, 2002 THE OTHER SAFETY ISSUE IS IN THE BRAKE FLUID THERE WAS A JELLIED TYPE OF FLUID..SAID ONLY # 3 WAS ALLOWED AND THIS DEFINITELY WAS NOT # 3 WHICH IS A LIQUID. I WAS VERY CONCERNED ABOUT IT AND WAS TOLD IT WAS SAFE WITH THE WAY IT WAS.. AND WAS DONE BY THE MANUFACTURER. TS
