2001 WINNEBAGO ADVENTURER Complaints

THE CONSUMER RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE #03V060000 FOR THE BRAKE WARNING LIGHT INDICATOR. THE CONSUMER WAS ONLY ABLE TO GET AN APPOINTMENT THREE WEEKS FROM NOW WHICH WAS NOT CONVENIENT HIM. *JB

NAR 3-10-03 THE CONSUMER INDICATED THAT SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED THERE'S BEEN DIFFICULTY WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL NOT DISENGAGING WHEN THE BRAKE WAS APPLIED. ALSO VIBRATION IN THE DRIVE TRAIN. NUMEROUS PROBLEM HAS FOLLOWED, THE CONSUMER HOPES TO RECEIVE A FULL REFUND OF THE PURCHASE PRICE. * CB *JB

WHILE DRIVING THE CONSUMER COULD HEAR A RUBBING NOISE, THE VEHCLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT DEALER WHO FOUND THAT THE COTTER PINS WERE NEVER INSTALLED AT THE FACTORY, THE CONSUMER REQUESTED REIMBURSEMENT BUT WAS ONLY APPROVED FOR PARTIAL REIMBURSEMENT. NLM

INFORMED BY CAMPING WORLD IN VALENCIA, CA. AND ECKHARTS TRAILER HITCH AND WELDING IN THOUSAND OAKS CA. THAT THE REAR SPRINGS ARE FLAT (ACTUALLY HAVE A NEGATIVE BOW) BECAUSE OF THE WEIGHT OF THE COACH. THE ONLY WEIGHT I HAVE ADDED IN A FULL TANK OF GAS(75 GAL) AND A FULL TANK OF WATER, (90 GAL) AND 28 GAL OF PROPANE. THE SUSPENSION IS REPORTED TO BE OVERLOADED BEFORE ADDING FOOD CLOTHES AND PASSENGERS. AS A CONSUMER I WAS NOT AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM OR HOW TO CORRECT IT BY EITHER THE MANUFACTURE OR THE DEALER. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT CONSUMERS SHOULD BE MADE AWARE OF AND SHOULD BE CORRECTED BY THE MANUFACTURER.*AK
