26dec had a tire failure on the road. After inspection found the tire was worn through the cord on the outside 1 inch of the tire. Further, after looking at the other three tires, found the same problem was occurring on the others. Contacted the rv dealer and they transferred me to the rv manufacture, forest river. Forest river took no responsibility of the issue and passed me to their axle supplier. After several hours investigating on the internet i found many others reporting abnormal tire wear due to axle miss-alignment. The axle manufacture is al-ko. Al-ko agreed to send a replacement set of axles. I?m filling this report to help save others possible injury due to tire failure from fault manufacturing practices of the al-ko company. Through internet research, i?ve found 30+ reports of others having the same axle issues with al-ko.please be advise; the correct vehicle was not listed. The vehicle in subject is2006 forest river wildcat 32qbbs 5th wheel camper,.
