    I took my 2005 Fleetwood Expedition 38N to shop to have oil change & mech ask did I know that my steps were extended. To make a long story short, he took the drive unit apart, did some thing to it but it still did not work. I asked him to oil /grease it, still did not work so he hit it with a deadblow hammer, it went right in & has worked well since. I did remove all excess grease & oil later to prevent it collecting dirt

    I have 2011 Ford Edge and have learned that if you have a Ford that is pretty well loaded, like mine, no key just a button and a lot of, the onboard computers, it will draw 3 amps while in the sleep mode, while being towed and the battery will go dead. I had 2 different Ford engineers work on my Edge and it can not be fixed. You can't disconnect the battery. Ford says that it is running as designed and it is, but they don't tell you the battery will go dead in the owners manual. As on 6-1-2011 they have made a change to the owners manual for the Edge and at least the Explore that you have to stop every 6 hours and run the motor for 5 minutes. If I had known this I would have not bought the Ford Edge. I AM GOING TO SUE FORD, and then buy another Jeep.

    Amen about the jeep. I've been towing a 04 Jeep Unlimited for about 25K miles, NO acc mileage, battery ran down only one time(co-pilot turned key ONE notch too far). We use a Blue Ox tow bar & base plates. We have driven the Jeep 30K miles as well as towing. We have yet to have any problem towing
