Front right of Phaeton tilting, told bushings?!

[Bowiesmom]

They said this was due to bushings in the back. Is that even possable? Was this the smell of a newbee walking through the service center door? We have a 07 Phaeton with F. C. C. thank you for any information

Would need more information as to what the symptoms are. What's tilting? The whole coach? If it's the whole coach, what's going on with the opposite rear corner? The right front wheel/tire? How has the driving of the unit changed, if at all? The more info you can provide the better a response you can get.

Thank you for your response. It was only the front right of the coach.
Everything else seemed ok. This is our first rv and only had a few days with it on the road. But it seemed to drive ok rather than the coach itself tilting downward on the front right, but the tire didn't seem to be a part of it. But again- newbee.
Thank you

I think I would be looking for a second opinion. There could be several things but my experience tells me bad bushings in the rear of the coach would not cause the front to drop. To the best of my knowledge any bushings I have seen under the rear of my MH are for rear end alignment, not vertical support. That's the suspensions job. If there is a Freightliner dealer near, that's where I would take it.

Exactly and Thank you,
We had it at Orlando Freightliner. My husband is picking it up as I write. As new owners, we thought they would be our shop. We bought our rv to recover from the losses from unethical situations we have gone through in the past years. Its disappointing, but will get our coach checked over before we feel safe. We love the Tiffin Company, and Tiffin owners. We haven't seen our coach since before Christmas.
Bought it the first of Nov. Wish I had Red Bay around the corner! Again thanks!
