Read complaints for ITASCA SUNSTAR (2013)
We took our first trip to the verde valley between 9/7/13 and 9/9/13.we found that it was difficult to keep the vehicle in the lane, especially when driving at highway speeds or windy conditions.after that trip, we contacted the dealer and were advised to have the vehicle aligned and tires balanced.which we did and we also added a stabilizer bar to the front. Our next trip to show low was taken 9/28/13 to 10/7/13.we found no noticeable difference in the handling of the vehicle and at one point almost lost control when encountering winds of about 20mph.had to reduce the speed of the vehicle to 45mph.the other issue encountered was the inability to see the gauges, when driving during the day.we have not used the vehicle since.we have been in contact with the dealer, winnebago and ford chassis division.according to two (2) certified scale tickets, on two (2) separate occasions, the vehicle scaled too light on the front axle, per ford specifications.the specifications for that chassis are that a minimum of 35% of the overall weight must be over the front axle.the other weight distribution issue is that the driver side is much heavier than the passenger side.during the first scaling, the front bins were fully loaded, the rear bins were lightly loaded (approx. 100lbs), the fuel tank was full, the fresh water tank was empty and there was no tow vehicle or tow dolly attached.the vehicle scaled at 68lbs too light over the front axle.the second scaling was completed for winnebago by the dealer.at that time, the only change in condition was that there was about 3/4 tank of gas and approximately 1/2 tank of water.water was added, per winnebago, as a way to compensate for the weight from left to right.the vehicle scaled at 377lbs too light over the front axle.we are still in possession of the vehicle and volunteer it for further inspection.
