2014 OPEN RANGE LF319 Complaints

RIGHT REAR TIRE DISINTEGRATED, ON MY 2014 NEW FIFTH WHEEL TRAILER, FOR NO REASON ,OTHER A DEFECT. HAD GOOD HIGHWAYS. LESS THAN 1500 MILES. COULD HAVE CAUSED A MAJOR ACCIDENT. THIS SEAMS TO BE A COMMON, PROBLEM. SOME OF THE SIDE WALLS, REMAINED ON THE DAMAGED RIM. SENT A FORM TO LIONSHEAD SPECIALTY TIRE AND WHEEL. THEY DENIED THE CLAIM. SOME THING NEEDS TO BE DONE BEFORE THERE IS A MAJOR ACCIDENT. *TR

OPEN RANGE 5TH WHEEL RV, WIRES FROM CHASSIS TO FRONT AXLE ELECTRIC BRAKES ROUTED OVER SPRINGS, INSULATION PARTIALLY RUBBED OFF DUE TO CONTACT WITH SPRINGS WHILE UNIT WAS IN TRANSIT. ON THIS UNIT, THE WIRES EXIT THE CHASSIS AND THEN GO TO THE LEFT, OR DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE UNIT (AXLES) WHEN ATTACHED TO A TOW VEHICLE. PLEASE NOTE, THIS IS A NEW UNIT WITH VERY FEW MILES ON IT AT THIS TIME. WIRES FROM CHASSIS TO REAR AXLE ELECTRIC BRAKES ROUTED OVER SUSPENSION COMPONENTS AND ARE VERY CLOSE TO THE SUSPENSION COMPONENTS. EXPECT TO SEE CONTACT AT THAT LOCATION, TOO WITH SIMILAR DAMAGE POSSIBLE TO INSULATION OF WIRES. I HAVE PICTURES OF THE ISSUE AVAILABLE IF THEY WOULD BE OF USE TO NHTSA. WHEN INSULATION FAILS I EXPECT A SHORT RESULTING IN FAILURE OF BRAKES IN RV UNIT....UPDATED 10/15/15 *BF UPDATED 8/23/2017 *CN
