I've been under the front of the Breeze a few times and have seen no evidence of a steering stabilizer. Since we have a generator leaking antifreeze (started one day just sitting...where did that come from?) I am going to have to take the coach down to Hall St. (Cummins/Onan) Not pleased with that. Will see if they can do an alignment - if not then off to Kenworth, I guess. Clarke does not have the necessary equipment. Thanks for information you've provided.

Christi..did you ever get the double sink put in?

Hi Sumar! (short way of saying Sue and Marty)..I like that!

No, haven't had the sink put in. Bob Tiffin said it would be no problem but we need to go to the factory for it so they can cut the Corian. Byerly RV (our dealer) didn't want to risk cracking it. We are planning a trip to Red Bay in the spring. I'd like to get the double sink and the tabletop that matches the cabinets. I'm thinking about having the TV in the bedroom moved. Do any Posters have the new one that is ceiling mounted? Do you have a good picture from the bed? Ours can be shadowy when viewing from some angles.

Joan wants to get a double sink also. Did you get a quote from Tiffin? If so, mind telling approximately how much? We are headed to Fl. via RB towards the end of January and are considering having this job done.

We have a Monaco Vesta with the Allison 2500 transmission, we looked at the Breeze and believe that it has the same set up ( Max Force Engine & Allison transmission). We had the same problem downshifting going to Yellowstone, not a good scene. The transmission would not downshift below 5th gear until the speed was below 20 mph. Brakes were smoking!! Monaco has issues a recall for all Vesta and Trips manufactured between mid 2010 & 2011 to determine if the Allison transmission does not downshift MANUALLY. The other problem was that the economy mode would not work as intended, that is not staying in 6th gear longer than normal. Perhaps you have the same issue and I would suggest that you contact Tiffin regarding this problem.

Tiffin is aware of the shifting issue and will supply reprogramming information if requested. Others on this forum have had their trannys fixed in this manner and I intend on having it done after the 1st of the year. I far as I know Tiffin has not issued a recall but from what other have said maybe they should. Don't know... Thanks

Had our transmission reprogrammed by calling Gary Harris at Red Bay. We can downshift all the way to 1st gear if needed(as was the case on a 19% grade in Gaspe Canada last summer). Also did individual tire weights with unit completely loaded and from that set tires at 65 rear and 80 front. Also had it aligned and put a safe-t-plus on it. Have 14,000 miles on it and it runs GREAT.
