SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
MY WIFE AND I RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2019 WINNEBAGO MINNIE PLUS IN SALEM, OR. WE WERE HAVING BRAKE ISSUES WITHIN A WEEK OF TAKING DELIVERY. WE RETURNED TO THE DEALER TO HAVE IT REPAIRED. THE ISSUE WAS SAID TO HAVE BEEN CORRECTED BY THE DEALER (ROBERSON RV). WE HAVE SINCE HAD A FAILURE WITH THE RIGHT REAR AXLE BRAKE AND A MINOR ISSUE WITH THE LEFT FRONT FWD AXLE BRAKE. THE REPAIR FACILITY WE TOOK THE RV FOR INSPECTION/REPAIR INFORMED ME IT APPEARS THAT THE REAR AXEL BRAKES WERE INTENTIONALLY DISCONNECTED. WE HAVE TRAVELED OVER 3000 MILES THE PAST 3 MONTHS USING THE HI-WAY SYSTEM AND ARE VERY FORTUNATE NOT TO HAVE CAUGHT FIRE OR CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THIS AND WOULD LIKE NHTSA TO BECOME AWARE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME
