hi we bought a 2012 Swift challenger sports that was 3 months old  from Catterick Caravans (Outdoor Leisure World) in october 2012..On a rally unable to move or level the van.

the alko unit seized due to the brakes being out of adjustment  the engineer who atko sent to rescue us

released the wheels and after correctly adjusting the brakes he

found that the brakeaway cable came away with the slightest touch as it had not been fitted correctly this was frightening for us , maybe other caraveners should check their cables,,

 

thanks ted
