Consumer Description

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 TIFFIN ALLEGRO RV. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH ON NORMAL ROAD CONDITIONS, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO SLOW DOWN WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. SUDDENLY, AFTER PUMPING THE BRAKES SEVERAL TIMES, THE VEHICLE CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP. THE ABS WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND REMAINED LIT UNTIL THE ENGINE WAS TURNED OFF.

THE VIN WAS EXCLUDED FROM NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 03V149000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC;SWITCHES:BRAKE WARNING), ALTHOUGH THE FAILURES WERE IDENTICAL. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED.
