I was once following a guy pulling a travel trailer and one of the leveling bars on his hitch had come loose from the hitch and was only being held on by the chain attached to the trailer. Those are very heavy metal bars. It was bouncing all over the place and smashing up against the bottom of his trailer and shooting sparks. I could even hear it hitting his trailer from my car behind him, but for some reason he couldn't hear it and just drove on. I tried to signal him with my headlights, but I was staying several hundred feet behind him because I was worried the chain was going to bust and that metal bar was going to come flying out. He ignored my headlights flashing and just kept going. Luckily he passed a CHP officer sitting on the side of the road and I pulled up to him and told him the problem and he was able to catch up to the guy and pull him over.
The moral of my story is there could be a lot of things that go wrong with your RV that you may not be able to see or hear from the drivers seat.
