Consumer Description

The sidewall on the passenger side broke free from the frame. Inadequate screws were used to fasten the sidewall to the frame and they were sheared off. This resulted in a gap between the floor and sidewall, with the pavement evident below, while travelling at 60 mph down the highway. The floor appears to be dropping. I believe this to be an engineering design flaw. Of note, this happened suddenly with no warning while travelling down the highway. I am reporting this as a Canadian resident because this RV was manufactured in the USA. Your contact page does not allow for addresses outside the US, so I chose Alaska as the state.
