On sunday, september 24, 2017 at about 3:00 pm, my wife and I were traveling at 60 MPH on I - 76 in commerce city, a suburb of denver, colorado. Suddenly the brake light flashed on, then multiple other dashboard indicators began flashing, the engine died completely and the brakes and steering worked poorly. I had to quickly cross several lanes of traffic to stop on the shoulder of the expressway. Ford roadside assistance helped arrange to have the vehicle towed. The tow truck arrived at 8:45. We were subsequently parked at a rush truck center at 9:45 that evening. On sept 25, rush truck center diagnosed the motorhome with engine shutdown, blown fuses and total disconnect of the PCM. According to the invoice, 0.049042 'the rv builder being the cause of the failure.' a copy of the invoice and a picture of the pinched harness are attached.
