I OWN A 1997 PACE ARROW MOTOR HOME ON A GMC P-30 CHASSIS, WITH 11,000 MILES. ON FEBRUARY 14, 2003 WHILE DRIVING THIS MOTOR HOME, IT SUFFERED A SERIES OF ENGINE DYING EPISODES. WHEN I FINALLY REACHED MY DESTINATION, THE ENGINE DIED FOR GOOD AND THE MOTOR HOME WAS TOWED TO A REPAIR FACILITY. THE FAILURE TURNED OUT TO BE A SHORTING OUT WIRE IN THE FUEL TANK IN THE FUEL TANK SENDING UNIT. MY CONCERN IS THAT AN ELECTRICAL SPARK IN A GAS TANK IS A BOMB. THERE NEEDS TO BE AN INVESTIGATION BEFORE SOMEONE IS INJURED OR KILLED.*JB

Reading this record

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.

Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
