ON 12/23/06 A WEEKEND WARRIOR TRAILER ROLLED OVER IN COLTON, CA ON THE SOUTHBOUND 215 NEAR WASHINGTON EXIT, IN FRONT OF THE GIANT RV DEALERSHIP WHERE IT WAS PURCHASED. I AM IN THE RV INDUSTRY, SO CONTACTED THEIR SERVICE DEPARTMENT TO MAKE THEM AWARE. THEY INDICATED IN A LATER CONVERSATION THEY DO NOT REPORT TO NHTSA ON THE TREAD ACT WHEN I SAW ONE OF THE PEOPLE AT AN INDUSTRY EVENT, AND THIS UNIT HAS A KNOWN FAILURE FOR A LIGHT TONGUE, CAUSING ROLL OVERS. NHTSA NEEDED TO ENFORCE TREAD OR MORE PEOPLE CAN GET HURT. AT LEAST ONE PERSON WENT TO THE HOSPITAL FROM THIS ROLLOVER , THE WIFE. THIS UNIT WAS A WEEKEND WARRIOR TRAILER, THEY WERE NOT LISTED ON YOUR SELECTION EVEN THOUGH THEY WERE THE LARGEST TOY BOX RV MAKER IN THE US. THIS WAS NOT A FLEETWOOD, BUT ITWAS THE SAME TYPE OF TRAILER AS THE INFORMATION BELOW.*AK
