Consumer Description

I HAVE A 1997 REXHALL MOTORHOME ON A 1996 P-30 CHEVROLET CHASSIS. THE AUTO PARK BRAKE, AT TIMES, COMES ON WHEN IN REVERSE OR DRIVE STOPPING THE VEHICLE VERY ABRUPTLY. I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT THIS IS GOING TO HAPPEN AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND SOMEONE IN THE MOTORHOME OR FOLLOWING TO CLOSE WILL BE INJURED AND/OR KILLED!! I HAVE TRIED TO HAVE THIS SITUATION TAKEN CARE OF BUT THE DEALERS I HAVE SPOKEN WITH DON'T SEEM TO HAVE THE KNOWLEDGE OR INFORMATION THEY NEEDED TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM. I HAVE SEEN THIS SITUATION MENTIONED ON RV FORUMS AND IT APPEARS THERE ARE MANY P-30 CHASSIS WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM AND CANNOT GET IT RESOLVED. I PRAY THAT YOU GET ENOUGH COMPLAINTS ON THIS PROBLEM TO INVESTIGATE IT BEFORE THINGS GET SERIOUS WHICH MIGHT RESULT TO INJURY OR DEATH. I AM AT THE POINT THAT I HESITATE TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE IN THIS CONDITION. THANKS FOR LISTENING. *LA
