Owner report 10400093 · 2011-05-05 (May 5, 2011)
I HAD A SAFETY RECALL # 50401C DONE ON 05/09/2006 TO REPLACE ALL 4 CALIPERS BECAUSE THEY MIGHT HANG UP AND CAUSE BRAKE OVERHEATING AND MAYBE A ACCIDENT. AT THAT TIME THERE WAS NO DAMAGE AND NO WORN OF CRACKED PARTS. I WAS ASKED TO RETURN AGAIN FOR RECALL # 51101C TO AGAIN REPLACE ALL 4 CALIPERS TO THE LATEST STYLE FOR THE SAME REASON. THIS TIME 3 OF THE 4 CALIPERS ON THE MOTORHOME WERE DEEMED NOT USABLE BECAUSE OF CRACKS BUT THE WORK HORSE CORP. WON'T PAY FOR NEW ROTORS. I THINK THIS DAMAGE IS THEIR PROBLEM AND NOT MINE. PLEASE ADVISE.
