Last .6 mile trip to get it to a location that a wrecker could pick it up died 5 times very hard to steer and stop not running and no power.
Any ideas or recommendations at this point 4 months cannot use motorhome will not stay running
not safe to try and drive with no power
Thanks Jeff

Died again no power towed to another ford dealership Vic Bailey ford Spartanburg SC. ran coach 2 days did not die test drove all power cut off. Ford replaced the main wire harness and power distribution box. Picked up coach took to rv dealer for warrantee minor items ran great. after another 3 months in the shop for repairs took on first trip died again but I was able to start and finish the drive home. Called Newmar and they got Ford on the line also. They stated that without it acting up they could do nothing and advised to drive it till it dies.
Any ideas on what I can do

This has been going on since august 2014
Jeff

Lemon law? Sorry for your troubles, it sounds like it is really a Ford issue and they need to resolve BUT Newmar is using the Ford chassis so they should be putting pressure on Ford to fix this once and for all. The ford dealer did get it to act up so there's definitely something going on and they should warranty THAT repair until it's fixed. Good luck.

I haven't had any problems like that but the ones that I have had Newmar has stepped up for me and have covered them almost 2 years out of there warranty... I would put the pressure on them to get it handled or help you get out of that coach...
