Details

What's wrong: On certain travel trailers, improper weight distribution may occur when the back of the travel trailer is loaded with cargo.

Why it matters: Under certain load conditions, the improper weight distribution may cause handling problems, including but not limited to, potential swaying of the trailer while being towed on the road. This could ultimately result in an crash involving the travel trailer and the tow vehicle.

The fix: Dealers will add reinforcing steel to the a-frame, install a new coupler with higher weight capacity, and higher capacity safety chains. Owners should contact thor california at 1-888-697-8467.
