Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

THE FRESH WATER HOLDING TANK FALLS OUT OF THE BOTTOM OF THE TRAILER ONTO THE TRAILER AXLES WHEN FILLED. THIS HAPPENED 6 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASE FROM DEALERSHIP WHICH WAS THE THIRD TIME WE USED THE TRAILER. THE DEALER CAME OUT AND FIXED IT THE FIRST TWO TIMES. IT SPENT 3 MONTHS IN THE DEALERSHIP THE LAST TIME IT WAS FIXED. THIS HAS HAPPENED NOW THREE TIMES IN 6 YEARS AND EVERYTIME WE USE THE TRAILER. ONCE THE TANK FALLS DOWN IT'S ON THE AXLES AND CAN'T BE MOVED. IT ALSO PULLS OUT THE OVERFLOW HOSE CAUSING WATER TO LEAK OUT AND INTO THE RV. *TR
