The contact owns a 2020 Walton Trailer. The contact stated while towing the empty trailer over a bridge at approximately 40 MPH, the single axle detached from trailer and bounced onto the roadway. The contact stated he towed the trailer off the bridge and had the trailer towed back to his shop. The contact had not taken the trailer to a local dealer or independent mechanic. The trailer had not been diagnosed and had not been repaired. The contact observed that the axle support brackets had only been tack welded onto the frame. The manufacturer had been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 150.

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.
