STEERING, ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
WHILE TRAVELING TO ALASKA IN OUR 2005 COUNTRY COACH INSPIRE WE HAD A TRANSMISSION OIL COOLER FAILURE WHICH CAUSED THE ENGINE COOLANT TO DRAIN INTO THE TRANSMISSION AND CAUSING IT TO FAIL. WE HAD TO BE TOWED 100 MILES TO A REPAIR FACILITY IN COBURG, OR, WHERE THE FOUND THAT BESIDES THE OIL COOLER, THE CHARGE AIR COOLER AND THE CHELSEA PTO WERE ALSO DEFECTIVE AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. THE PTO ON OUR UNIT DRIVES BOTH THE FAN AND THE POWER STEERING. IT IS THE SAME UNIT PRESENTLY ON RECALL FOR THE CC MAGNA AND INFINITY MODELS. THE REPLACEMENT FOR THE DEFECTIVE PTO WHICH WAS A DRY SPLINE IS A WET UNIT SO THAT SPLINE FAILURE WILL NOT OCCUR IN THE FUTURE. IF THE DEFECTIVE PTO HAD NOT BEEN FOUND AT THIS TIME. THE SPLINES WOULD HAVE FAILED COMPLETELY RESULTING IN THE LOSS OF POWER STEERING WHICH COULD BE FATAL. THE DEFECTIVE UNIT IS AT PACIFIC POWER PRODUCTS, COBURG, OR. OUR UNIT ONLY HAS 39,000 MILES ON IT AT THIS TIME. IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT CHELSEA ADVISED CC THAT THESE UNITS ONLY HAD A LIFE OF 30,000 MILES BUT THEY CHOSE TO IGNORE THIS AND FAILED TO ADVISE OWNERS OF THE POTENTIAL FOR FAILURE. *TR
