2015 Drv Elite Suite

Defect. DRV Suites (DRV) is recalling certain 2007-2018 Elite Suites, 2014-2018 Full House, 2003-2018 Mobile Suites, 2010-2018 Mobile Suite Estates, 2006-2012 Select Suite, 2013-2016 Tradition, and 2017 Travel Suites recreational vehicles, equipped with certain Kidde Plastic-Handle or Push Button 'Pindicator' Fire Extinguishers. These extinguishers may become clogged, preventing the extinguisher from discharging as expected or excessive force may be needed to activate the extinguisher. Additionally, in certain models, the nozzle may detach from the valve assembly with enough force that it could cause injury and also render the product inoperable.

The heavy duty hydraulic front landing jacks for the self-levelling system on my 2015 Mobile Suites RV now drop when the RV is being towed risking a catastrophic accident should they make contact with the road while being towed. As evidenced by any online RV forum and numerous YouTube videos this problem is not unique to my rig. Indeed, the manufacturer has discontinued using this landing gear. I suspect it is because of this issue. Merely search for "front hydraulic jack failure Mobile Suites" online and you will get plenty of evidence. While its being towed one can see if the jacks are dropping using the mirrors. It's very difficult with a dually as the rear fender flare hides them (I have a Ram Dually 3500). We are full time in our RV staying warm in the Phoenix Area. I plan on having my rig repaired in the near future prior to heading back north this Spring. Unlike most, my rig doesn't sink when parked (yet) but the jacks do drop when I'm on the road towing. I've jury-rigged a mechanical support system to help ensure that they don't drop while travelling using ratchet clamps (the kind you use on dryer hose) chain and hooks. Scary. Here are a few links proving that this is a common problem. I didn't scroll through the entire forum. I'm sure there are others. https://suitesownersinternationaltravelclub.vbulletin.net/forum/soitc-general-forum/general-topics/3319-got-lucky-today-and-didn-t-lose-the-front-jacks https://suitesownersinternationaltravelclub.vbulletin.net/forum/so

On 6 of my Sailun tires the tread separated over the course of 2 years causing over $9,000 in damage to my RV. My insurance company, Progressive took one of the tires to attempt to get Sailun to pay with no results. I decided to contact you since there is a recall on the smaller sailun brand tire with the same problem.
