Structure · reported Dec 6, 2007
Excessive frame flex which has caused frame failures in other toy haulers like mine. My frame has not failed yet but the flexing has caused a separation of the front wall from the cabinets which are attached to it.
Structure · reported Nov 13, 2007
My wife noticed the cabinets separating from the interior wall of our 5th wheel trailer in the bedroom(Front). I took the trailer to nationalrv in perris,ca & was told there was alot of flex up front causing the damage. Also told was that the frame needed to be inspected and that it might be unsafe to tow. It is a 2003 ragenrvt toy box with a lippert frame. They told me it was out of warranty & that all costs I would have to pay for. I believe this is a serious safety issue with this frame & the company is well aware of it.
