ON JUNE 8, 2010, MY WIFE AND I WERE TRAVELING IN OUR 2005 ///TIFFIN(ALLEGRO BAY) MOTORHOME WHEN THE BRAKES OVERHEATED AND WE LOST ALL BRAKES. THIS WAS THE FIRST TIME THAT WE EXPERIENCED BRAKE FAILURE. BERGEY'S GARAGE IN FRANCONIA, PA., TRANSPORTED OUR VEHICLE TO THEIR FACILITY AND REPAIRED THE CALIPERS ON BOTH REAR BRAKES PLUS OTHER COLLATERAL DAMAGE. PICTURES WERE TAKEN AND THEY CONTACTED WORKHORSE CUSTOM CHASSIS IN TROY, MI TO FIND OUT WHAT THEY WOULD COVER SINCE A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE 50901 C WAS ISSUED. *TR
