What owners report
Short excerpts of NHTSA complaints in the original wording. These are owner statements not verified by NHTSA; personal data removed.
The Lippert frame on our 2015 Coachman Freedom Express has cracks of the frame near the tires. There are also multiple spider cracks throughout the frame. Lippert says they aren't responsible for anything since the unit is over 5 years old. There are campers 30 years old out on the road.
The right rear axle, of this double-axle trailer, shifted forward causing the rear tire to grind into the front one. Fortunately, the right middle and front spring hangers held the axles somewhat in place and the truck&trailer coasted safely onto the shoulder.
