Each component in detail
What the reports in each category say, in the owners' own words
Driver assistance
Reports naming forward-collision avoidance, lane keeping, back-over prevention, cruise control and related electronic driver-assistance systems.
From owner reports, verbatim
The Dashboard Module provided by MEDALLION INSTRUMENTATION SYSTEMS Part# 66-02439-000 on the Freightliner Chassis is delaminating causing the critical gauges to become difficult to read. Additionally the screen will unexpectedly dim causing additional readability. I consider this to be a potential safety issue as it is unknown if and when the screen may go entirely blank. I have contacted Freightliner and they will not warranty the part even though it appears they own Medallion and this part is proprietary. There apparent fix is a $6,000 replacement which is 2.5% of the cost of the motorhome. In the photos attached I do not have a photo of the dimming screen since this would be a safety issue to snap a picture while driving
