What owners report
June 2023 from the inside of the RV we noticed the back end of the RV sagging. I inspected the frame and found it was broken in several places. The right side of the 'I' beam was cracked just above the rear leaf spring hanger. On the left side of the trailer the leaf spring hanger was broken off the 'I' beam and the 'I' beam was bent. This rendered the trailer extremely dangerous to pull. This trailer was purchased in 2019 and was not driven recklessly to cause this to happen. Just normal driving. The RV is available for inspection however it has been repaired, and the frame has been re-enforced with steel plates. The RV forum I am on indicated both the RV manufacture and the frame manufact
My Mallard 25 manufactured by Heartland was in the shop for another issue (black water tank). As they removed the under-belly, they noticed 4 cracks/fractures in the I-Beam on both sides behind all 4 wheels. The cracks vary in length. They told me to contact Heartland to see what can be done. I have done that and have received no response. I believe this is a dangerous driving condition and that NHTSA should be notified immediately. Kennedyâs RV technicians will confirm their findings through pictures. I also have copies of the pictures. Thank you in advance for your quick response.
Camping World did a warranty axle repair in March 2021. During this repair, they mounted the axle but did not connect the electrics - I have pictures of coiled wires they left after mounting the new axle. This meant that the rear axle did not have the electric brakes, or the emergency breakaway disconnect. I had a electrician crimp the brakes during a trip in april 2021, after I discovered this. Since I'm not a technician, I did not know that the emergency breakaway also needed to be connected. It remains unconnected to this day. The emergency breakaway issue was discovered during a routine Virginia state safety inspection. The breakaway is related only to the rear axle, which was rep

The contact stated while he was asleep, he started to smell a burning odor entering through the AC vents. The contact stated he turned off the AC unit and the power. The contact was able to continue sleeping and the odor went away. The contact stated no one was injured or sought medical attention. The contact stated that the electrical wire connectors to the compressor on the AC unit were melted. The contact stated that an independent mechanic came to the RV and replaced the AC unit. The manufacturer had been informed of
THE DEXTER AXLE AND BEARING CAME APART. IN 2018 SEVERAL RECALLS WERE MADE FOR SIMILAR AXLES WITH A DEFECT IN THE BEARING AND HUB CAUSING OVERHEATING AND FAILURE. OUR APPROXIMATELY 5.1-5.2K LBS TRAILER AXLE FAILED IN THE SAME MANNER BUT WASN'T LISTED AND DEXTER IS DENYING A PROBLEM IN THEIR MANUFACTURE / ACTIVE RECALL. PLEASE INITIATE AN INVESTIGATION. OUR WHEEL CAME OFF WHEN DRIVING AND WE RECENTLY HAD IT INSPECTED AND TIRES REPLACED ETC.*DT*JB
