NHTSA Complaint #10343717 — 2007 ITASCA NAVION

THE TURBO RESONATORS ON 2002-2007, 2.7 MERCEDES BENZ DIESEL ENGINES ARE DEFECTIVE! I AM ON MY THIRD ONE, AND I ONLY HAVE 15,000 MILES ON MY ENGINE, WHICH IS IN A 2007 ITASCA NAVION MOTOR HOME. WHEN THEY GO OUT ON THE INTERSTATE, YOU ARE PUT IN A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION BECAUSE YOU CANNOT GO OVER 45 MPH, AND YOU'RE LIFE IS PUT IN DANGER. I HAVE EMAILED MERCEDES BENZ/DODGE/WINNEBAGO AND THEY SAY THEY DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM, BUT THEY DO!! I HAVE GONE ONLINE SEARCHING OUT THIS DEFECT AND COULD NOT BELIEVE THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS SAME LIFE OR DEATH SITUATION, DUE TO THEIR TURBO RESONATOR GOING BAD. IT SEEMS THAT THIS WARRANTS A RECALL, TO FIX THIS DANGEROUS DEFECTIVE PRODUCT AND WE NEED YOUR INTERVENTION.. THERE IS A COMPANY THAT MAKES A REPLACEMENT TURBO RESONATOR AND GUARANTEES IT FOR THE LIFE OF THE ENGINE, BUT MERCEDES BENZ NOR DODGE WILL PUT IT ON, INSTEAD THEY KEEP REPLACING IT WITH ONE THAT WILL NOT WITHSTAND THE VIBRATION AND HEAT OF THE TURBO.SO, IN ABOUT 4000 MILES, WHEN IT GOES OUT AGAIN, I PRAY I CAN GET OFF THE ROAD SAFELY, THEN HOPE THERE'S A DODGE DEALER CLOSE BY TO REPAIR IT QUICKLY. PLEASE HELP US BEFORE WE MIGHT BECOME A HIGHWAY STATISTIC. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
