TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 HOLIDAY RAMBLER VACATIONER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE BRAKE CALIPERS SUFFERED SEVERE OVERHEATING AND A BURNING ODOR WAS PRESENT CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO ERRONEOUSLY DECREASE SPEEDS. DURING THE INCIDENT, THE ABS SENSOR WARNING LIGHT HAD ILLUMINATED. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT YET DETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 25,000.

THE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW IS FOGGY YOU CANNOT HARDLY SEE OUT OF IT. CAMPING WORLD SAID THEY HAD SEVERAL ISSUES WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I THINK THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ON THESE WINDOWS BECAUSE OF THIS

BRAKE CALIPERS FAILED TO RETRACT CAUSING THE PADS TO DRAG ON THE ROTORS CAUSING EXTREME HEAT. THE ROTORS GOT SO HOT THE ANTI LOCK SENSOR MELTED CAUSING ANTI LOCK SYSTEM FAILURE INDICATOR LIGHT TO COME ON. THE ROTORS ARE NOTICEABLY OVERHEATED AND VERY SPLOTCHY THEY SHOULD BE POLISHED NOT SPLOTCHY.

FRONT GENERATOR SLIDING DOOR IS TOO LOW AND HAS POOR LATCHING CAUSING THE DOOR TO HIT SMALL HUMPS / INCLINES THEN OPEN LATER AT AN UNINTENDED TIME. TWICE I HAVE BLOCKED TRAFFIC TRYING TO GET IT BACK UNDER THE COACH AFTER SEEMINGLY RANDOM OPENINGS. REPAIR COSTS FOR THIS POOR DESIGN IS RIDICULOUS. IT IS A ROAD HAZARD.
