I purchased this travel trailer new in april 2001.i had numerous manufacturing defects with it and it was in the shop for the first 6 weeks.i finally received it back in june.in july we were going camping and we were about 50 miles from home on a major highway, my husband felt like he was fighting the steering wheel the whole time.a car in the lane next to us started to come a little close so we weaved a little to the left.at that point the whole trailer started to whip and we could not get it under control.than the truck started to whip.we thought for sure we were going over but we were lucky and eventually got it under control.witnesses said the trailer had a bad sway in it under normal driving conditions.they said it never stopped swaying.we had our hitch, tow bars and sway bar checked out.they were all fine.we found three loose wheel bearings and tightened them.when we got it to the dealer they said that the manufacturer never greased them, they were dry and they found problems with the breaks.after the wheel bearings were greased, tightened and the electric lines to the breaks were corrected we took it out for a test drive.the sway was real bad.my husband said it handled worse than before.the dealer has had it a month today and they want to test it with a dual sway bar.as far a i know this has not been done yet and i'm scared that this might just mask the problem.coachmen doesn't feel there is a problem and won't do anything.they have walked away from it.i want them to take this trailer back.i strongly feel that there is a manufacturing defect that cannot be corrected and this will eventually roll over and kill me and my family.please help.
