WINNEBAGO MINI CAMP TRAILER HAD THE FRESHWATER TANK FALL OUT OF THE BOTTOM OF IT WHEN I FILLED IT WITH WATER. THE TANK IS MOUNTED WITH METAL FRAMING AROUND THE EXTERIOR EDGES OF A PLASTIC TANK. WHICH MEANS WHEN YOU FILL THE TANK UP, THE TANK SAGS IT FALLS OUT AND IT'S ONLY HELD IN WITH SOME DUCT TAPE AND SOME INSULATION.THIS APPEARS TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE OUR DEALERSHIP IS TAKING IT SERIOUSLY. WE HAVE LEFT MESSAGES WITH WINNEBAGO AND HAVE NOT RECEIVED A RESPONSE. WE WILL SEE. THIS APPEARS TO BE A DESIGN PROBLEM. THIS IS A BRAND NEW WINNEBAGO CAMP TRAILER WE HAD IT FOR 60 DAYS.
