Changed coaches. RV particulars: 275HP Cummins, 4 sp Allison. '00 Winnebago Journey, 24K miles. Engine starting sometimes erratic (got coach 10 May 05 in Huntsville) thought it batteries since they wouldn't hold a charge. (There were other little irritations too that should not have been present in a coach just off the dealer's lot. Caveat Emptor is alive and well!). Went to Charlotte for NASCAR, 05/30; left there going South on I-77 and stopped for lunch at Cracker Barrel north of Coulmbia, SC. Engine wouldn't turn over, plenty of battery fire.
Spent two days on parking lot (long story) before being towed to Cummins Atlantic in Columbia. Diagnosis: loose ignition switch shorting out starter. Some mentally handicapped employee didn't see the need to tighten the switch at the dealership. Won't be returning to nor recommending them to anyone. Along with my time and anguish I spent $886 including tow. I'm asking for it to be reimbursed but not holding my breath; will keep you informed.
