BluesLover,
I agree, eliminating this single point of failure is ideal and best. I too lost ALL POWER when mine failed - power brakes, steering, gauges, motor, everything! I was lucky to have been in the slow lane, in light traffic, and have a hard shoulder to move onto. This scenario would be devastating if this happens in heavy traffic, winding roads, steep mountain pass, etc.
The same thing happened to me going through Atlanta. This would have been a disaster if it happened going down a mountain pass. I had no brakes after I used up the hydro-boost reserve and had to use the emergency brake to stop. I have a 2009 Thor Hurricane 34b. I spent 3 days at a ford dealership waiting for a new BCC. This needs to be fixed by Thor.
