STRUCTURE:BODY
Potential Consequences:
THE FRAME/WALLS OF THE 5TH WHEEL CAMPER ARE NOT PROPERLY MANUFACTURED. EXTERIOR WALLS ARE NOT COMPLETELY IN TACT WITH THE FRAME. CAMPER IS NOT STABLE AND CAUSES A HUGE RISK FOR COLLAPSING. PROBLEM WAS FOUND WHEN THE CAMPER WAS BEING REPAIRED FROM A TREE FALLING ON IT. THE SERVICE CENTER HAS BEEN VERY THOROUGH TO CHECK FRAME FOR DAMAGE AND FOUND NO DAMAGE TO THE FRAME BUT DISCOVERED THE EXTERIOR WALL IS NOT GLUED COMPLETELY TO THE EXTERIOR OUT WALL. I HAVE REACHED OUT TO THE MANUFACTURER AS THE SERVICE CENTER HAS HALTED REPAIRS AS IT IS A SAFETY CONCERN TO PUT THE INTERIOR WALL BACK KNOWING THE EXTERIOR WALL IS NOT PROPERLY CONSTRUCTED.
