Consumer Description
A bracket holding the front fiberglass cap or facia to the frame came loose and fell off on the interstate I-94 in Wisconsin, making a big clunk under our motorcoach causing several cars to swerve avoiding the metal bracket laying in the road. We had to pull over on the busy interstate to assess any damage to our coach. Luckily we came out unscathed. After looking into this further, I noticed that the screws holding the bracket on were broken off in the metal frame. I looked at the other bracket on the driver's side and the screws were broken off in the frame too and being held by one wood screw on the fiberglass facia. It seems that the wrong type of fasteners ate being used causing this failure
