Complaint Summary

ENGINE

Owner Narrative

OUR RV HAS A V-10 ENGINE. WE DROVE 244 MILES TO THE BEACH ON THANKSGIVING WEEK. NO PROBLEMS UNTIL WE HAD TO STOP AND WAIT ON A PARKING SPACE. WE TURNED THE ENGINE OFF AND WHEN WE RESTARTED IT A SPARK PLUG BLOW OUT OF THE ENGINE. IT BROKE THE PIECE ON TOP OF IT. WE WERE BROKE DOWN AT THE BEACH ON A HOLIDAY. A HELI CORD WAS USED TO REPAIR THE PLUG. IS THIS A TEMPORARY FIX OR WILL WE BE STRANDED AGAIN. WE ONLY HAVE 33,000 MILES ON THE RV. *TR
