While heading on vacation April 2021 on Highway in California 58 to the 15 on-ramp we had a failure of the fuel filter bracket which caused the fuel filter to drag on the highway rendering the vehicle in operative and we were stranded on the side of a dangerous curve with vehicles transitioning from one Highway to another very close from what I understand we are not the only RV to have this problem where the bracket has broken off . This happened April 2021 it is now Sept 24th 2021 and we are being told manufacturer still has the part on backorder.

THE ENTRY DOOR OF THE RV IS THE ONE AND ONLY DOOR. IT HAS COME OPEN WHILE DRIVING, IN A LEFT TURN (SO IT FLEW OPEN TO THE OUTSIDE) AND IT HAS GOTTEN STUCK CLOSED WITH ME INSIDE. I AM UNDECIDED WHICH MADE ME FEEL MORE UNCOMFORTABLE. *TT *DT*JB
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.
