I HAVE A 2016 KEYSTONE MONTANA 3402RL 5TH WHEEL AND ENCOUNTERED A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THIS PAST JULY. WHILE TOWING FROM KENTUCKY BACK TO NY, I NOTICED MY REAR AXLE NOT TRACKING PROPERLY IN MY REAR VIEW MIRROR. I PULLED INTO AN INTERSTATE REST STOP AND FOUND THAT THE REAR SPRING BOLT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR AXLE HAD BROKEN. IT WAS REPAIRED TEMPORARILY TO GET ME HOME AND I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER. THEY REPLACED IT WITH THE PROPER PARTS. IT IS A CORRECT TRACK SUSPENSION MANUFACTURED BY LIPPERT.

I TOOK MY TRAVEL TRAILER IN TO MY DEALERSHIP, SMALLWOODS TRAILERS, TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF AN ELECTRICAL FAULT. THE FAULT WAS FOUND TO BE IN THE BRAKING SYSTEM. SPECIFICALLY THE BACKING PLATE ON ONE WHEEL HAD BROKEN AND THE OTHER THREE BACKING PLATES HAD CRACKS IN THEM. I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THIS HAPPENING BEFORE ON ANY OF THE AUTOMOBILES I HAVE OWNED. SEEMS ODD. ARE OTHERS HAVING THIS SAME PROBLEM? THIS TRAILER WEIGHS OVER 13,00 POUNDS.
