Reported May 13, 2005 · 1,606 vehicles affected · MONACO COACH CORPORATION

Engine and Engine Cooling · at 155,957 miles · reported Mar 19, 2018
We had a horrifying experience due to a massive fuel leak on jan 12, 2018, less than three months after service had been had been completed at cummins crosspoint on oct 18, 2017. Cummins had replaced the engine harness on the isl-400 engine of our monaco motorhome as a result of an earlier fuel leak they discovered in may of 2017. Cummins crosspoint assured us, after we asked at least three times that all fuel leakage issues had been corrected. We do not know if the fuel leak on jan 12th was the result of improper inspection or poor workmanship by cummins crosspoint, or if it is the result of…
Tires · at 94,000 miles · reported Jul 14, 2012
Goodyear g670 rv tire: "rivering"- type tread wear leads to steering pull after less than 25,000 miles of use. Front tires showed rivering (Wear between 1st and second treads) after about 24,000 miles. As rivering became more pronounced, the steering pull/drift quickly became more pronounced. Swapping the front tires left to right changed the pull to the other side. Suspected tire deterioration and/or internal belt shifting internally as cause. I decided it was too dangerous to continue use so the tires were replaced although tread wear was minimal.
Service Brakes, Air · at 33,400 miles · reported Apr 2, 2006
Brake caliper bolt causes tire deflation the bolt (Cap screw) on top of the front left caliper on my 2003 monaco dynasty slowly came loose. After backing out approx 1/4" - 3/8" it started to shave a notch into the tire valve. At first there was a slow leak (Less than 1 PSI in a day); after a few weeks this increased to a 10 PSI loss in one day; there were no other symptoms. Problem was found by a local tire shop and valve replaced. Cap screw evidently is there to hold the brake pad keeper springs in place. This design affords minimal clearance to tire valve stem and may exist on other models…
