Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“I purchased this rv new. I lost a wheel bearing because of a bad wheel hub. I was able to repair the axle enough to still use. In 2017 on my way to arizona I lost this same wheel bearing again and was able to repair it once again to continue my trip. After returning home last spring I decided to replace this axle. Upon removing the axle I discovered that the axles on this rv are 4400# axles. My paperwork on this rv shows that it is supposed to have 5200# axles. Wondering why this is so.”

NHTSA complaint #11128407, filed 2018-09, 12,000 miles

“Brakes were contaminated with wheel bearing grease, either damaged/faulty rear wheel bearing seal or/and substandard grease that liquefies. The cavity in the hub is filled to maximum capacity with grease which is unnecessary which is another contributing factory. This is not an isolated incident and has been an issue for at least 6 years. Suspension items are provided by lippert (lci). My 2011 heartland sundance 5th wheel had the same issue. Grease on these brakes makes it nearly non functioning and a huge safety issue.”

NHTSA complaint #10955358, filed 2017-02, 2,000 miles

“Vin sticker on side of fifth wheel trailer states 6000 lb axles but trailer had undersized axles rated at 5200 lb axles! Grand design rv owners please check you axles before someone gets hurt!”
