I was traveling at 60 mph on highway 87 north of great falls mt. At about 4:40 inthe afternoon on september 4th 2020, the tread of rear tire on the drivers side of my 2016 forest river travel trailer came apart from the rest of the tire. After getting the trailer back under control and brought to a safe stop it was noticed that substantial damaged was caused to the trim surrounding, above and behind the tire, as well as damage to the trailers plumbing that was behind the tire, along with damage to the underneath of the trailer including the wires for the trailer breaks being torn out from the hub. The tread that came off the tire along with some of the broken plumbing struck the car that was behind us. Luckily after talking with the individual, the damage that their car substained was minimal. They were along with myself was glad that it was a rental and they bought the extra insurance.
Trailer was purchased new at best rv in turlock ca. It's stored on a dry driveway in ca. No extended exposure to rain or snow. The nuts attaching the body to the frame are completely rusted and deteriorating. The bolts for the suspensionare also rusted. Incorrect nuts and bolts were used in the manufacturing of the trailer and are unsafe. If the nuts further deteriorat then there is a chance the body of the trailer will detach from the frame. I have spoke with the dealer and manufacturer and both say the warranty does not cover rust. But the incorrect parts were used are are causing the issue.
The contact owns a 2016 forest river wildwood. While reversing into the driveway, the rear passenger side axle detached and fractured. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that there was a defect in the frame. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vin was not available.
