NHTSA Complaint #10199334 — 2004 FOREST RIVER TRAVEL TRAILER

WE OWN A 2004 CEDAR CREEK 5TH WHEEL. EXCESSIVE TIRE WEAR ON THE INSIDE TIRES INDICATED AN AXLE PROBLEM. ALSO KOBER REFUSED TO REPLACE THEIR BAD AXLES OR REPLACE THE WORN TIRES. FORTUNATELY, WE NOTICED THE FAILURE PRIOR TO BEING INVOLVED IN A BLOWOUT OR ACCIDENT. THE MANUFACTURER OF OUR 5TH WHEEL, CEDAR CREEK, TOOK IT UPON THEMSELVES TO REPLACE THE AXLES AND TIRES. ALSO KOBER HAS KNOWN OF THIS ISSUE FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS NOW AND CONTINUES TO DENY THEIR FAULTY AXLES! JANESVILLE RV SERVICE DID THE REPAIRS TO REPLACE THE AXLES. THEY TOOK PICTURES OF THE AXLES AND TIRES AND SENT THEM TO STEVE HICKS AT CEDAR CREEK IN INDIANA. THIS IS AN AXLE PROBLEM THAT ALSO KOBER NEEDS TO TAKE CARE OF AND A FORCED RECALL ISSUED IMMEDIATELY! ALSO KOBER CONTINUES TO DENY THAT THEY MANUFACTURED FAULTY AXLES. SOMEONE SHOULD NOT HAVE TO BE KILLED FOR A RECALL TO BE ORDERED. PLEASE NOTE, OUR 5TH WHEEL TRAILER IS NOT LISTED IN YOUR DROP DOWN LISTS IN THE NEXT SECTION! *TR
