	Re defective 2004 class c motorhome manufactured by forest river, request a defect investigation due to heat from engine in the floor boards and interior while driving. bf the heat rising up has caused the consumer to become drowsy while driving. the consumer turned on the a/c which helps but the air does not blow on the floor. *nm
