WE PURCHASED A 2005 TAHOE TOY BOX BY THOR IN MAY, 2004. WE'VE HAD MANY INCIDENTS INVOLVING THE REAR TIRES AND AXLES. THERE WAS A SAFETY RECALL CAMPAIGN NO. 150030 ISSUED. WE PURCHASED THE TRAILER FROM PAN PACIFIC RV CENTERS IN SACRAMENTO. ONE MONTH AGO WE HAD A TERRIFYING EXPERIENCE WITH THE TRAILER, AGAIN INVOLVING THE REAR TIRES AND/OR AXLE. ON THE WAY TO CAMPING AT HALF MOON BAY, CA WE HAD A FLAT TIRE. THE RIGHT FRONT TIRE FELL OFF THE RIM. WE CHANGED IT. ON THE WAY HOME 5 DAYS LATER, THE RIGHT BACK BLEW AND SHREDDED. WE WERE FORCED TO THE SHOULDER OF A BUSY HIGHWAY DURING RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC. WE WERE SO CLOSE TO THE EDGE WE COULD NOT GET OUT OF THE TRUCK. MY SON AND GRANDDAUGHTER WERE WITH US. WE WAITED OVER TWO HOURS FOR ASSISTANCE. WE HAVE TAKEN OUR TRAILER TO PAN PACIFIC, ROSEVILLE ON MANY OCCASIONS FOR REPAIRS, MANY INVOLVING THE REAR END. AS SOON AS WE RECEIVED THIS SAFETY RECALL WE TOOK THE TRAILER IN FOR INSPECTION. THE TRAILER HAS BEEN IN MANY TIMES FOR INSPECTION AND WE HAVE RECEIVED NO ANSWER AS TO WHAT, IF ANYTHING WAS DONE TO CORRECT THIS. IT IS AT PAN PACIFIC RIGHT NOW FOR REPAIRS. WE WOULD LIKE SOMEONE WHO IS KNOWLEDGEABLE IN THIS AREA TO INSPECT OUR TRAILER AS THIS COULD HAVE BEEN LIFE AND DEATH. PAN PACIFIC DOES NOT SEEM TO WANT TO WORK WITH US. CAN YOU HELP? THANK YOU, KAREN BREESE-CROSS. *TR
