Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“While driving through a parking lot, the gray wastewater tank of the travel trailer fell off out from under the frame. One of the crossbars supporting the tank perpendicularly had failed. The tank, 7ft steel support (approx 15lbs), and other plastic piping components simply fell off from this failure and could have caused a catastrophic incident had this occurred at speed or on a major highway. It appears that the supporting straps or other steel elements found on the freshwater tank to help with extra support are not being included for the gray or black water tanks.”

We are sure the door popped open, because the awning sticks out further than the door, and it was not effected. After the incident, I found a Windjammer forum with a post from another person who had issues with this same door popping open while the trailer was in motion. …”
