Steering, SuspensionNHTSA complaint 11605464 · Jul 30, 2024
We have a 2015 Coachmen Freelander 21R RV (with a Ford F-350). Recently, while driving on the freeway a car near us kicked up some debris. This went under the RV and within 30-60 seconds after we heard a loud explosion/boom. My husband immediately pulled over and we were thinking it was blown front tire but just as he pulled over we noticed a large cloud of white "smoke." The "smoke" turned out to be propane coming from our propane tank. Later he crawled under the RV and found a large hole in the tank. It appears that whatever hit it was hard enough to create a large hole in it and therefore…

THE CRACK STARTS ABOUT 2 FEET UP AT THE EDGE OF THE GLASS, EXTENDS ACROSS THE WINDSHIELD A FEW INCHES AND THEN TURNS DOWN. IT HAS CONTINUED TO SLOWLY GROW.

Counts are a starting point, not a verdict: popular models collect more complaints because more of them are on the road, and NHTSA does not verify individual reports. To see whether a recall is still open on your car, enter your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls (U.S.) or your registration at check-vehicle-recalls.service.gov.uk (UK). Had a safety problem? Report it to NHTSA; complaints are what trigger investigations and recalls.
