I HAVE A DEXTER 3500# DUAL AXLE ON A 2017 CRUISER RV SHADOW CRUISER 280QBS THAT HAD A LEFT REAR TIRE COMPLETELY WEAR OUT TO TREADS WITH ONLY ABOUT 5000 MILES. RV WAS TAKEN TO SERVICE CENTER WHEN THEY FOUND THE LUG NUT HOLDING THE WHEEL ON ALMOST OFF. DEXTER HAS REFUSED TO PAY FOR THE TIRE AND REPAIR BUT HAS SAID THEY WILL SHIP A NEW AXLE FOR ME TO HAVE INSTALLED. THEY SAID PUTTING A NEW TIRE ON THE OLD AXLE WILL NOT FIX THE PROBLEM BUT THE NEW AXLE WILL BUT THEY STILL REFUSE TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR IT. THEY HAVE HAD A RECALL FOR THE SAME ISSUE ON THE SAME POUND AXLE BEFORE. THIS IS YOUR CASE NUMBER 17V-248. WE HAD BEEN TRAVELING WITH OUR GRANDSON WHEN WE STOPPED AT AN RV PARK AND THE TIRE WAS NOTICED. WE HAD AAA ROADSIDE CHANGE THE TIRE NOT KNOWING IT WAS AN AXLE ISSUE.

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
