2015 Shasta Airflyte Other or unknown Problems

“Our Shasta Airflyte has a chronic water leak and has since we took possession of it in december of 2014. The source of the leak is unknown, but the water exits from inside the rear egress window frame. We have to take care in inclement weather to make sure the inside of the trailer isn't damaged by water. Our main concern, however, is inside the trailer structure, specifically the wooden framing which is being exposed to water whenever it rains. The worry is mold will develop unseen and prove a health hazard to our family. …”

“After arriving home from picking up the trailer I had noticed the inner driver sidewall of the tire having rub marks. After closer inspection, the tire sidewall clearance to the driver side wheel well has only 1/4 to 5/16 of clearance. The tire clearance on top is also only 1 causing rub marks on the wheel well. I called a forest river dealer to have my trailer fixed under warranty. After numerous calls, and unanswered emails my dealer told me they approved longer shackles. This however did not fix the problem. …”

“I'm concerned about the safety of several features of my brand new 2015 Shasta Airflyte travel trailer (by forest river). Based on initial inspection of interior fixtures alone, it's apparent there was not a lot of foresight when designing these, and quality control was seriously lacking. Corners were seemingly cut to save time or money on interior fixtures (I.e. A/c, wood trim, sealing of windows and other seams, + more). As a result, I'm concerned about what lies beneath the pretty surface of the trailer in its guts (frame, wheel wheels, springs, etc) and how they will hold up over time. …”

“None of the weight ratings on the reissue Shasta Airflyte's are correct. The axel has a label on it placed there by the manufacturer that says gawr 3500 lbs. The same axel is on the 16' and the 19'. So no rating can exceed 3500 lbs. Yet mine says gvwr is 3635.”

“The frame and welding on my trailer is faulty. The tongue and frame assembly has separated, causing the body to fail. It caused the front body/wall to separate from the bench seats by over an inch with exposed screws and staples. The skin on the outside is buckling on the front, rubbing on the propane bottle area, and has a clear fold at the bottom near where the frame goes under the skin. In one side where the skin has buckled, it is bent so much the skin has folded and has a stress fracture. …”
