Service Brakes
Filed Jul 3, 2024AK
RV batteries (Go Power brand) went into standby mode. The following morning, after the RV was plugged into shore power (50-amp) all night, batteries did not charge leading to complete loss of brakes while tv was hooked to truck. Brinkley RV failed to identify issue or issue safety bulletin/recall to owners. Incident occurred in May 2024 in Indiana. Brinkley serviced the RV following the incident and could not provide an explanation or solution. RV was almost unstable in a safe time/distance due to loaded weight of 20,000 lbs at time of rv brake failure. No warnings inside truck indicated loss of trailer brakes. Brinkley and Camping World in Richmond, IN both verified truck was not the cause for brake system failure and that power was going to RV and brake system.
No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
