A replacement when exiting i-95 in north carolina, discovered that i had lost all brakes on 2014 drv 5th wheel trailer. Upon investigation, dicovered a brake line hose had a rub-though from rubbin on adjacent tire, causing a complete loss of brake fluid.at highway speed the hose would contact the tire. At stopped position the hose would not contact the tire. The steel brake lines were mou ted on the outside of the frame rail. The hose connection at the caliper was positioned such that it caused a loop that was near the tire. A new brake line hose was installed avoiding the previous positioning. Subsequently, all brake lines were replaced/repositioned inside the frame rails. New, longer, brake line hoses were connected to new brake lines inside frame rails. The new, longer hoses addressed the full axel travel, which the original hoses did not.

Inspection reveled that the metal is tearing in the area i can see. Lippert's (the frame manufacture) response was due to the age (6 years) of the rv they would deny financial responsibility. Drv has not answered my email to them..
