So, I got my new Class C Forest River Sunseeker 2500ts on a E450 platform, just about less than a month ago. Beautiful piece of equipment, I feel, being our first motorhome. We decided to take a trip to Phoenix from Corpus Christi, about 1200 miles away. The home part was great . All work as it should be. The problem is on the "motor" part of the motorhome. As soon as we started our journey, I quickly notice something wrong with the steering. Too much play on it, for my taste. For some of you who may have traveled through south New Mexico and Arizona, then you know about the burst of wind. Well, we had plenty of that and combine with the play on the steering, I was not a happy camper. To top that, at a certain speed, between 62 and 68MPH, there is a noticeable vibration which goes away as soon as move to 70 up or down to 60 or below, smooth riding. Not normal.
When we got back, I immediately contacted my dealer, Camping World. Sorry, it's a FORD issue. Corpus being a small town, we have two Ford dealers which neither of would touch it, saying they don't have the equipment to deal with a motorhome. I also contacted another Ford dealer, a few miles away. This one had a lift big enough but no one trained to deal with my type of issue. So, what to do? Can I hold the dealer responsible for that, can I take it to a place that deals with heavy truck and bill back Ford or Camping World?
This is a new vehicle with about 3000miles. Does anyone had to deal with something similar? Any advice will be appreciated.
