2012 FOREST RIVER WILDCAT Complaints

ST235/80R16 Tire Load rang E Before going on a trip, I noticed the tire had lost about 10 lbs of pressure compared to the other tires. I found no leak or hazard in the tire, like a screw or nail, so I raised the tire to pressure. (80 psi) While travelling at 60 mph I noticed the tire's temperature was about 8 - 10 degrees hotter than the other tires, but still within acceptable range. After arriving at my destination 80 minutes later I inspected the tire again and noticed the center of the tread was bulging out all around the tire. I removed the wheel and tire, took it to a tire dealer, and had it replaced with a Goodyear Endurance. The dealer said it was a cord separation.

TRAVELING ON HIGHWAY AT 50 MILES PER HOUR THE FRESH WATER TANK WHICH WAS HALF FULL IN MY 5 TH WHEELER, THE CROSSMEMBER THAT HOLDS TANK SHEARED THE 2 6MM SELF DRILLING SCREWS THAT HOLDES THE CROSSMEMBER TO CHASSIS THE CROSSMEMBER HAD PROVISION FOR 4 SELF DRILLING SCREWS BUT ONLY 2 HAD BEEN INSTALLED AT THE FACTORY RESULT WAS HALF FULL WATER TANK SKIDDING ALONG THE HIGHWAY WITH THE CROSSMEMBER LUCK NO CARS OR MOTORCYCLE WERE CLOSE OR IT COULD HAVE CAUSED A ACCIDENT

AFTER FIRST PULL WITH 5TH WHEEL THE BRAKES ON THE COACH WOULD NOT STOP EVEN SET TO MAX GAIN AND MANUAL CONTROL, TOOK TO BACK TO DEALER TO HAVE ISSUE LOOKED INTO. THEY SAID NOTHING WRONG. TOOK BACK HOME AND ADJUSTED THE PADS TO HARD DRAG, (I AM A PROFESSIONAL MECHANIC) STILL BRAKES DO NOT STOP COACH. TOOK COACH BACK TO DEALER AFTER CAMPING SEASON TO HAVE THEM LOOK INTO BRAKE ISSUE, THEY SAID NO ISSUE, TALKED TO FACTORY REP THEY SAID NO ISSUE, THE FACTORY TALKED TO MANUF OF AXLES THEY SAID NO ISSUE. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE THAT NEED TO BE RECTIFIED, I CAN NOT EVEN ENJOY THIS COACH OUT ON THE U.S. ROAD SYSTEM WITH OUT FEAR THEY I COULD NOT STOP WITH OUT AMPLE TIME OR DISTANCE. *TR
