Monaco corporation is fully aware of these defective transmission coolers and have a specific program in place to fix them after they fail.

This transmission problem was reported to the dealer on 09/05/2002. The vehicle was taken on two test drives by the technician along with myself and my spouse. His diagnosis was , that the transmisson has a memory and the erratic shifting and lurching w as its way of adapting to my driving style. The other dangerous problem, on the road, is when this transmission lets go, it throws oily substance all over the vehicles in back of you and on the roadway. Monaco coach corp has a on going program in place with pacific detroit diesel - allison. The problem is known by monaco coch corp.
