During normal use traveling on interstates and US Highways my 5th Wheel has developed structural issues which can be attributed to manufacturing defects. The frame produced by Lippert has already come under scrutiny for substandard welds and is known across the industry by consumers but will not be properly addressed by the manufacturer. I contacted Keystone and Lippert and was told they wouldn’t do anything about the structure. Now I have a potentially unsafe RV I’ll have to take on the highways. Lippert needs to be held accountable for their blatant safety violations.

Sloppy assembly at the plant. the brace was installed TOO far from the grey holding tank and at an angle. The weight of the tank bent the frame member allowing the tank to fall out of its location. I called the factory they were ZERO help. if this tank full falls out of the coach while its going down the road someone could be killed. 39 gallons at 8.34 lbs per gallon equals 325 lbs that could hit another vehicle.
