Latest Eagle Super Lite complaints
I am writing to you today because my jayco camper was manufactured with no access to the furnace. No access to the propane lines, no access to the burner; it is my belief that the way this camper was constructed is not inline with the propane regulations.
Draining my black water tank, and connected a hose to tank fresh water scrubber. Water started running onto ground from underneath unit.

Furnace is 12v, but wh is dual gas/110v, thus had the wh been operating on 110, and water got to the elect wires, my wife, who was walking barefooted in br, could have been hurt. B and...

b requires the mfg to place their warning tag at inlet and not enclose the valve in a hidden area, for it can " vent water during normal functioning." Neither of these instructions from b and b occurred on my unit. I have blogged with others on this issue, and have found the same valve problem, dateing back to 2010, on both jayco and other mfgs. I'am the second owner, so warranty does not apply. Jayco corporate service people said they were sorry about the absent tag, and to just do away with the valve. What about the hundreds of other owners with this same valve? Like me, the problem is found, with out any warning, *tr ## vin passed ## jayco eagle series 298rls ##

there would have been a collision and loss of life. 2Nd incident occurred on 4/29/12 when going down a small hill. Trailer brake controller showed power to brakes, however, when fully engaged, there was no brakes from trailer causing both tow vehicle and trailer to go through a red light and into intersection. Local dealer has stated they have not seen a grease seal failure like this in all 4 drums at once causing complete loss of braking. Jayco is covering repair under warranty, however, where is reassurance this does not occur again?? *Tr
