What owners report
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FOREST RIVER SILVERBACK (NA). THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 65 MPH, IT WAS NOTICED THAT THE CAMPER FRAME FRACTURED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FRAME FRACTURED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.
THE CURRENT STEPS THAT ARE BEING USED ARE FASTENED TOGETHER WITH ALUMINUM POP RIVETS. THESE RIVETS WILL NOT SUPPORT A PERSONS NORMAL WEIGHT FOR A PERIOD OF TIME. THEM SHEAR OFF AND THE STEP FALL ALONG WITH PERSON THAT IS ON IT. THIS IS A STEP SAFETY HAZARD. I CALLED THE COMPANY DEMCO THAT MAKES THE STEPS AND THEY DO HAVE A RETRO KIT BUT IS ONLY REPAIRED WHEN YOU CALL. MOST CAMPERS DO NOT KNOW TO CALL.
