Defect Description:
WHEELS
Potential Consequences:
Either Ford or Forest River installed valve stem extension on the vehicle along with poor quality hubcaps on the front wheels of the RV. On our first long distance trip our hubcap fell off and sheered the valve stem causing rapid loss of tire pressure. We were able to get to the shoulder and use roadside assistance to install a plain rubber valve stem. On the trip back our other front hubcap fell off in Indiana. It did not shear off the valve stem, but when I removed the extension when a mechanic suggested it, I noticed severe damage to it. (as though a hack saw were cutting it off). I belong to a East to West Entrada owners group on Facebook and this is a very common occurrence. It's only a matter of time before someone loses control and gets hurt.
