What owners report

2024-07-09, Suspension
On [XXX], while traveling NB on [XXX], my 2022 Forest River Shockwave (purchased new in July 2022), suffered a catastrophic suspension failure on the driver's side while hauling my son's dirt bike and a golf cart. I was able to safely get my vehicle and the toy hauler off to the shoulder. A wheel had nearly come off the trailer. After being previously torqued to spec, it still somehow loosened itself and suffered a failure, shearing off lugs. The back spring was collapsed and after getting towed to RV Country in Kelso, loose shackle bolts were found on all ends of the springs. The original company I purchased it from is no longer in business and the new company that took over the are doesn't
