The Ford F53 Chassis built for motorhomes has a Ford Factory Advance Trac Warning System. When this system detects a fault the chassis looses Cruise Control, Hill Assists Feature, and Anti Lock Brakes. The Ford Pass App records the faults; however once the Ignition is turned off it erases the fault from the onboard computer. Ford has issue a TSB SSM51210 to reprogram the ASB Module only when the code is active. As stated before once the ignition is turned off the codes are erased. The problem with that scenario is that there are very limited dealerships and companies that will work or have the capability of diagnosis of the system. The safety problem comes when transiting a step grade and Hill Assist and ABS becomes inactive or during wet/icy conditions when Anti Lock Brake System become unexpected in active with no warning. 1. Advance Trac Service Required 2. Cruise Control, ABS, Hill Assists becomes inactive 3. Iginition switch turned off clears fault 4. Limited service facilities for motorhomes 5. Safety when transiting steep grades and wet/icy conditions

Concerning recall 51101-c. The dealers are telling me the only thing covered under this recall is the calipers, even though because of the calipers, the rotors are also damaged. And the ABS sensor is melted. Just wondering what your interpretation of this recall is. Thanks for your time.

There have been repeated attempts to repair the ABS system on my class a motorhome,since the time of purchase, including 1 manufacturer recall on the ABS system and 2 recalls on the hydraulic brakes. I have completed all of the recall orders and also had intermittent inspections on the brakes. This morning I had an accident due to a brake failure. The brake pedal went to the floor without slowing the vehicle and I went through a stop sign, across a state highway, over an incline and through a fence.

While traveling on business highway 17 in myrtle beach, sc (level road) ,within 20 minutes of leaving our campsite a definite smell of brake lining was preset in the motorhome. I immediately pulled off to the side of the road and investigated the smell that appeared to be coming from the rear axle. I put the vehicle in reverse; backing and breaking several times. I then put the vehicle in drive and accelerated forward and braking several times. Finally I put motorhome in drive without touching the accelerator to see if it would roll freely forward . I also verified the emergency brake was working properly. I did this several time. During all tests there was no apparent drag on the brakes. It appeared that the problem corrected itself. I continued my drive home without any brake problems. This is the first occurrence of this problem, but after reading several complaints on the federal safety agency site I am very concerned. Reviewing you site, I had not peddle drop or ABS light notification. At the time of the brake drag, all else appeared normal

While traveling on the highway I could not go any faster than 40 MPH. The ABS warning light then lit up on the instrument panel of my motorhome with a workhorse w-20 chassis. I then began to smell burning brakes. I then slowed and traveled a mile or so to the nearest exit. While on the exit ramp I lost all brakes, the pedal going to the floor. As I was not going very fast, I used the transmission to slow down and pull onto the shoulder. The vehicle was then towed to a local winnebago dealer where it was necessary for them to replace all calipers and pads, rear ABS sensors, and brake fluids as it had boiled the system. A zerk fitting was also installed into the brake bar. After reading numerous other complaints about similar incidents I thought it best to file a complaint.
