I HAVE A 2004 GEORGIE BOY MOTORHOME ON A WORKHORSE W20 CHASSIS AND WHEN MY FAMILY AND I WERE RETURNING FROM A TRIP, WE COULD SMELL SOMETHING BURNING. WHEN I PULLED THE MOTORHOME OVER TO INVESTIGATE WHERE THE SMELL WAS COMING FROM, I NOTICED A FLUID ON THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE TIRE. IT WAS HOT AND SMELLED LIKE BRAKE FLUID. APPARENTLY THE CALIPER SHOT OUT SOME FLUID OUT OR SOMETHING AND WHEN I TOUCHED THE RIM, IT WAS EXTREMELY HOT. WHEN I WAS DRIVING IT HOME, I ALSO FELT A PULLING TO THE LEFT AS I WAS GOING DOWN A STRAIGHT PART OF THE HIGHWAY. NOW THE ABS LIGHT IS ILLUMINATED. I HAVE NOT TAKEN IT TO THE GARAGE YET FOR REPAIR AND I AM CONCERNED TO DRIVE IT THERE AS THE NEAREST SHOP IS AROUND 30 MILES AWAY. *TR
