STRUCTURE:BODY

Potential Consequences:

On the morning May 22nd, just 45 minutes after we left our home in Portland, our trailer burst into flames on 1-84 off exit 44 near Cascade Locks. It was inexplicable as to why this happened. It was a brand new trailer with less than 2k miles on it and purchased in December 2020. As you can see from the pictures, it was a total loss. We are filing this report to help protect others. We are a part of the forest river group and quality seems to be a concern. Demand for these vehicles have skyrocketed and many feel that QA has been downgraded in order to get these trailers to market.
