Consumer Description

Axles are cracking. Yes available for inspection. Husband was checking under camper since we were going to get new tires and the dealer wanted to know what suspension we have. This is when he noticed the cracks in the axles. This is affecting both axles on the camper. This concerns us a lot if they broke the camper would probably roll or cause a severe accident. When we went to get the tires my husband asked the tire dealership service technician if it was a manufacture defect and they said yes. Where the axle was welded together they appear to be breaking apart. We need to know what can be done about this. Since it appears to be a defect in the axles. Our camper is a 2014 Grand Design Solitude. I will attach pictures.
