The Dashboard Module provided by MEDALLION INSTRUMENTATION SYSTEMS Part# 66-02439-000 on the Freightliner Chassis is delaminating causing the critical gauges to become difficult to read. Additionally the screen will unexpectedly dim causing additional readability. I consider this to be a potential safety issue as it is unknown if and when the screen may go entirely blank. I have contacted Freightliner and they will not warranty the part even though it appears they own Medallion and this part is proprietary. ...

There apparent fix is a $6,000 replacement which is 2.5% of the cost of the motorhome. In the photos attached I do not have a photo of the dimming screen since this would be a safety issue to snap a picture while driving
THIS IS EXTRACTED FROM A LETTER THAT I SENT TO FORD ON 24 JANUARY 2022. They never responded. I was horrified and shocked to see multiple (16 parts weighing in at about 6 pounds) components missing from the mounting hardware on the rear sway bar suspension. From my layman's understanding the front and REAR sway bars are a SAFETY CRITICAL component for the safe handling of such a large vehicle. We were told by a Ford Dealer in NC that his service technician often sees some or all of these sway bar components...

loose or missing when performing RV service. My question to the Ford Dealer in NC was "then why didn't the Service Technician put a wrench on the sway bar bolts which had to be loose for the sixteen parts, to go missing in 3000 miles?" I did not receive an answer! I do not believe that the Service Tech was being disingenuous. My question to Ford was was: If this is a recurring problem why hasn't Ford ordered a safety recall to check on the security of rear sway bar bolts? And, if this a recurring problem why doesn't Ford use elastic stop nuts and/or thread lock to prevent this egregious safety flaw from occurring? I was able to get the necessary parts and affect the repairs myself. In December 2022, Ford ordered a safety recall but does not yet have the necessary parts to fix their error.
The contact owns a 2019 Fleetwood Discovery. The contact stated that while doing a post-inspection on the RV, he noticed that the passenger's side rear tire was flat. The passenger side rear tire valve stem extension rubbed on the wheel rim, causing loss of tire pressure. The failure was a recurring failure even after the dealer performed a recall repair under NHTSA Campaign Number: 20V529000 (Tires). The dealer was made aware of the failure but informed the contact that multiple failures after the recall repair were not experienced before. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 12,150.
While traveling on interstate 40e at 70 mph in our 2019 fleetwood discovery 38n, the whirlpool 19 cubic foot, 200 pound refrigerator broke loose from the factory installed 3/4 perforated restraining straps and slid out of the refrigerator compartment. This incident caused severe panic to the driver and passenger who took immediate action to avoid any further damage and vehicle accident. Passenger had to restrain refrigerator while vehicle was still moving and until we made an emergency stop. The separation of this...

appliance caused damage to the trim and attached food pantry cabinet. Note: according to the grainger website, the 24 gauge support strap specification sheet, similar to the straps used by fleetwood to support the refrigerator only have a 10# max load. These perforated straps are made for hanging pipe, not for supporting a 200 pound refrigerator with various directional forces . *Dt *jb
The undercarriage side storage access doors do not remain closed even when locked. Often when the road is bumpy or rough the doors will fly open. Recently while traveling through jacksonville fl on i-95 the passenger side doors flew open when I slowed down. I was in the center lane during heavy heavy traffic and cars on my right had to slam on brakes and veer to the right to avoid hitting the doors. Having to get over to the right lane to get of the road with the doors open was incredibly dangerous and we were...

fortunate to make it without a serious incident. I have asked the dealer to adjust the locking mechanism which he said he did but the doors continue to fly open. This as been recurring since I bought the rv in 2013.
Tl* the contact owns a 2017 fleetwood discovery 37r rv. While driving approximately 20 mph down hill, the generator located in front of the rv compartment door opened. The clasp loosened, which allowed the generator to slide out. The contact had to pull the vehicle over to the side of the road and, with the help of other drivers, pushed the generator back inside the compartment. The rv was taken to the dealer (flagg rv in uxbridge, ma) and the rv had been there ever since awaiting parts. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 4,000.
