Consumer Description

BRAND NEW TRAVEL TRAILER WAS SOLD BY CAMPING WORLD WITH BIAS PLY AND RADIAL TIRES MIXED ON THE AXLES, WATER TANK WAS LEFT UNBOLTED FROM FRAME AND ELECTRICAL UNDER THE TRAILER WAS FIXED WITH WIRE NUTS. THIS IS ALL A SERIOUS SAFETY DEFECTS, THAT COULD LEAD TO MAJOR PROBLEMS ON THE HIGHWAYS, PULLING THE TRAILER HOME IT HAD MAJOR SWAY PROBLEMS. I DONT KNOW IF THE FOREST RIVER FACTORY BUILT IT THIS WAY OR CAMPING WORLD DID IT.
