Transmission - every 30,000 miles.
Brakes - every 2 years.
Coolant - 5 years or 100,000 which ever occurs first then every 3 years or 50,000 miles.
Brake and transmission schedule as related Class A motorhomes is in the back of the Ford Scheduled Maintenance Guide listed under "Exceptions". Second to the last page in my 2006 guide. Same transmission (5R110W) so I would expect the interval is applicable to a 2011. We might have different brake boosters (Hyrdro Boost or Hydro Max) but my guide doesn't make a distinction so I would suspect it also applies. Owner's manual has the fluid type requirements. Stick with the same fluid type.
While under the coach I would drain and refill the power steering fluid also. The rear axle is good for a few more years.
