Consumer Description

WHILE TRAVELING ON BUSINESS HIGHWAY 17 IN MYRTLE BEACH, SC (LEVEL ROAD) ,WITHIN 20 MINUTES OF LEAVING OUR CAMPSITE A DEFINITE SMELL OF BRAKE LINING WAS PRESET IN THE MOTORHOME. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND INVESTIGATED THE SMELL THAT APPEARED TO BE COMING FROM THE REAR AXLE. I PUT THE VEHICLE IN REVERSE; BACKING AND BREAKING SEVERAL TIMES. I THEN PUT THE VEHICLE IN DRIVE AND ACCELERATED FORWARD AND BRAKING SEVERAL TIMES. FINALLY I PUT MOTORHOME IN DRIVE WITHOUT TOUCHING THE ACCELERATOR TO SEE IF IT WOULD ROLL FREELY FORWARD . I ALSO VERIFIED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WAS WORKING PROPERLY. I DID THIS SEVERAL TIME. DURING ALL TESTS THERE WAS NO APPARENT DRAG ON THE BRAKES. IT APPEARED THAT THE PROBLEM CORRECTED ITSELF. I CONTINUED MY DRIVE HOME WITHOUT ANY BRAKE PROBLEMS. THIS IS THE FIRST OCCURRENCE OF THIS PROBLEM, BUT AFTER READING SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ON THE NHTSA SITE I AM VERY CONCERNED. REVIEWING YOU SITE, I HAD NOT PEDDLE DROP OR ABS LIGHT NOTIFICATION. AT THE TIME OF THE BRAKE DRAG, ALL ELSE APPEARED NORMAL
