What owners report
Short excerpts of NHTSA complaints in the original wording. These are owner statements not verified by NHTSA; personal data removed.
In addition, the cabin was filled with a grey smoke and a burning odor was detected. The contact was able to manually move the wire and installation to the wire. The contact received notification of nhtsa campaign number: 18v217000 (service brakes, electric).
Could have caused the shell of unit to come down in contact with the tires causing a blowout.
While driving on a highway, my wheel detached from the camper. Upon inspection and then repair, the 6 lug bolts had snapped from the hub. The repair man said he had never seen this before. I kept the bolts and took pictures.
We have had two blowouts in less than one year. Each time there was tread separation. The last event occurred on may 15th of this year. As with the first occurrence, there was no warning and the tires were properly inflated and checked prior to starting the trip.
Tl* the contact owns a 2005 rv crossroads cruiser. The contact took the vehicle to the dealer for repairs under nhtsa campaign id number: 08v370000 (equipment, recreational vehicle). The dealer stated that he could not replace the boiler tube however, he would install a safety shield on the refrigerator.
On that trip, the passenger side front tire blowout on the freeway after about 10 hours of travel. Prior to taking any trips, my routine is to check the trailer tire condition and pressure. Since this was the first blowout, I just attributed to an unknown road hazard condition.
