While driving approximately 65 mph, the trailer began to shake and vibrate. After stopping to inspect the vehicle, it was discovered that both the front and rear passenger tires experienced tread separation. The tires were replaced and the failure was remedied.
In addition, the contact stated that the rear door was corroded and rusted. An independent mechanic confirmed that the rear door was corroded and rusted and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failures. The failure mileage was unknown.
At about mile marker 112 between brush and sterling, colorado the rear curb (passenger) side carlisle tire on our three axle rv trailer blew out. We pulled over as soon as possible and found the rear quarter panel, wheel flair, and the clearance light were damaged and the mud flap missing from the blown carlisle tire.
Exit, the center road (driver) side carlisle tire on our three axle rv trailer blew out. We pulled over as soon as possible (within 150 feet) and replaced the blown tire/wheel with the spare and continued on to julesburg colorado, where we had the blown tire replace with a non carlisle tire.
