Consumer Description

Traveling on I 25 construction on highway created lots of bumps. The water tank mounted near rear of motor home ripped free of its mounting bolts and dropped down, only thing keeping it from completely falling off was the generator exhaust pipe which was underneath the tank. This also tore the support strap off the exhaust pipe. The water tank is mounted in an aluminum casing with a flange with bolts attached to frame. Called Tiffin and was told they were aware of this problem and could send us some straps to support tank until we could get it to a service shop. Representive from Tiffin said they had made changes to model for 2021 to address this problem. The mobile repair person who made supports said we were lucky we stopped before tank completely came off, we tow a car and the tank could have caused the car to flip which would have then caused the RV to wreak!
