Defect. VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: TRAVEL TRAILERS. WOODEN BOARDS WERE MOUNTED BETWEEN THE AXLE BRACKETS AND THE FRAME OF THESE TRAVEL TRAILERS. THE BOARDS COULD DETERIORATE AND/OR COMPRESS SUFFICIENTLY TO ALLOW THE METAL BRACKET OF THE AXLE MOUNT TO PRESS DOWNWARD AGAINST THE BRACKET SIDE MOUNTING BOLTS.

Risk. THIS DOWNWARD CONTACT COULD CREATE A SHEARING FORCE ACROSS THE BOLTS, ALLOWING THE AXLES TO SEPARATE FROM THE TRAVEL TRAILER.

Remedy. DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE WOOD WITH A STEEL TUBE SECTION.

MY FIRESTONE TIRES, ON MY DUTCHMAN MOTORHOME, KEEP SEPARATING. THIS IS THE SECOND BLOWOUT. THEY ARE STEELTEX RADIAL LT225/75R16, LOAD RANGE E. ONE OF THESE DAYS SOMEONE IS GOING TO BE KILLED OVER THIS. WE BOUGHT ONE TIRE, WHICH I THINK FIRESTONE SHOULD HAVE DONE, AND PUT OUR SPARE ONE THE OTHER ONE.

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.
