Example complaints

“I bought a Forest River Gray Wolf 26DBHBL on April 4th 2022 from Camping World in Anthony, TX. Both of the back right brakes locked up on us 100 miles from home on only our second camping trip with the camper. When we took off and opened the brake drum, the brakes were broken apart. Springs were off and adjusting bolts were bent and stripped, among other parts that were broken off. There was almost no oil inside the drum cap. We checked the left side and the brakes were very loose. None of the brakes were ever adjusted. …”

NHTSA complaint #11462076, filed 2022-04

“The contact owns a 2022 Forest River Grey Wolf 19SM travel trailer. The contact stated that while driving at 10 MPH, the brake safety switch inadvertently activated and a burning odor was detected. Upon inspection, the contact noticed that the brakes were extremely hot and had melted the brake wiring. The RV was not diagnosed nor repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was unavailable.”
