ATWOOD FURNACE MODEL AFMD35131A CONTROL CARD FAILURE DUE TO DESIGN ERROR THAT PLACES THE CONTROL CARD IN AN AREA WHERE CONDENSATION FROM THE MOTOR COLLECTS. CARD FAILURE CAN RESULT IN POTENTIAL LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE PROPANE SUPPLIED FURNACE AND OVERHEATING AND FIRE. ATWOOD HAS A RELOCATION KIT FOR THE CARD BUT IT HAS NOT BEEN ANNOUNCED AS A RECALL.

TIRE BLEW OUT AT ABOUT 62 MPH CAUSING OVER $4000.00 DAMAGE TO THE RV. TIRE COMPANY CONTACTED SINCE TIRE WAS LESS THAN 2 YEARS OLD AND HAD ONLY 2300 MILES AND WAS PROPERLY INFLATED AND NOT OVERLOADED. TIRE COMPANY RESPONDED FROM CHINA AND ASKED FOR PICTURES AND ESTIMATE OF DAMAGE ALL OF WHICH WAS SENT TO THEM. SINCE SENDING ALL THE DOCUMENTATION THEY WILL NO LONGER RESPOND TO MY E-MAIL REQUESTS FOR UPDATES. THE COMPANY MAKES THESE TIRES IN CHINA UNDER THE NAME CROWN TIRE. A TIRE THAT IS LESS THAN 2 YEARS OLD AND PROPERLY MAINTAINED SHOULD NOT COME APART AS THIS ONE DID AND NOW IT SEEMS THEY WILL NOT STAND BEHIND THEIR WARRANTY..

ON 05/24/2016 7 WEEKS INTO A VACATION WE FOUND THE CRE3000 SUSPENSION ALIGHMENT SYSTEM ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE COACH TO BE MISSING ALL THE FASTENERS AND BOLTS THAT CONNECT IT TO THE AXLES. LOCAL RV REPAIRMAN REPLACED 2 LINKS, 2 BOLTS AND 2 FASTENERS. HE CHECKED LEFTHAND EQUIPMENT FOR PROPER TORQUE. THIS CONDITION WAS FOUND AFTER WE SET UP AT A CAMPGROUND IN CODY, WYOMING AND WE HAD JUST COME OUT OF THE BIG HORN MOUNTAINS AND THE GLACIER NATIONAL PARK MOUNTAINS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT IN MOTION AT THE TIME OF DISCOVER. UNCERTAIN HOW LONG WE TRAVELED WITH THE COACH ALIGNMENT SYSTEM IN THIS CONDITION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 KEYSTONE MONTANA. WHILE INSPECTING THE VEHICLE, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE CONNECTING RIVETS TO THE QUAD ENTRY STEPS WERE BENT AND CAUSED THE STEPS TO BECOME UNSTABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE BUT WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE IF THE VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V10200 (STRUCTURE). THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.
