When Things Go Wrong While RVing


Listen Later

Even the most seasoned RVers know — things will go wrong eventually. In this episode, Kenny and Sean share their personal stories of roadside disasters, mechanical failures, and how they handled them without losing their cool (well, mostly).

Kenny recounts his recent breakdown that left his RV immobile after a locked brake caliper destroyed his rear axle. Sean chimes in with his own tales of mishaps and misadventures from the road. Together, they dive into what it really takes to stay calm, safe, and sane when your home on wheels decides to quit rolling.

Topics Covered:

  • What happened during Kenny’s major brake failure and tow experience
  • Sean’s stories of unexpected mechanical breakdowns
  • How to safely manage roadside emergencies
  • Why patience, humor, and preparation are key to surviving RV life
  • Key Takeaway:
    RVing isn’t about if something will go wrong — it’s about how you handle it when it does. From breakdowns to busted axles, these are the moments that test your resolve and remind you why community, preparation, and flexibility matter most.
