On 7 september 2009 we were on the freeway near atlanta when our 2006 holiday rambler neptune started rocking from side to side and made sounds like something underneath up front was loose. We slowed down and made it to our campground and when I looked underneath I could find nothing loose up front. I went online and did a google search and found this post. I went underneath again and found the left rear trailing arm was completely broken with a 1 inch gap between the u-bolts. The trailing arms on the roadmaster rr4r chassis are a known problem and are failing at a rate of several per day.
