Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I own a 2014 palamino Columbus 5th wheel camper. There is a small crack in the front corner of the bedroom slide out. The Columbus facebook page is full of complaints about this particular problem. Forest river has fixed some units under warranty and they admit that there is a structural problem with the frames of the campers. Lippert is the manufacturer of the frame and it has poor weld and poor structural supports. There are literally thousand of these units out there that need fixing. …”
