THE COMPLETE A FRAME TONGUE FELL OFF THIS UNIT. THE STRUCTURAL DESIGN OF WHERE THE TONGUE OF THE TRAILER MEETS THE MAIN STRUCTURE IN INSUFFICIENT IN MY OPINION. OUR CUSTOMER, OPTIMUM CABLE COMPANY, OWNS SEVERAL OF THESE UNITS. A FLEET MANAGER WITH OPTIMUM SIAD AT&T OWNS SEVERAL OF THESE TRIALERS. I OWN A TRAILER REPAIR SHOP IN WEST TEXAS, AND HAVE BEEN IN THE TRAILER REPAIR BUSINESS FOR OVER 30 YEARS. MANUFACTURER CLAIMS THEY CHANGED THE DEISGN OF THE TONGUE BECAUSE A CUSTOMER WANTED A REPACABLE TONGUE. FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND OPTIMUM AND AT&T ARE A COUPLE OF THERE BUGGEST COMPANIES. AT THE BARE MINIMUM, THERE NEEDS TO BE RECALL ON THE UNITS THEY HAVE MANUFACTURED WITH A "REPLACABLE" TONGUE.

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.

Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
