Unknown or Other · at 15,000 miles · reported Feb 3, 2017

Emergency exit window latch broke allowing exit window to flap like a bird's wing. Don't know what kept it from flying off and hitting a vehicle beside or behind me. Very poorly made, to light grade of aluminum used. This is a lawsuit waiting to happen.

While we were traveling on the highway, speed less than 60 miles per hour on the entire trip, camper below the manufacturer weight limit, and tire pressure of 80 PSI cold. Stopped in a small town in co to have the tire fixed and the repair guy had a similar customer a short while before with the same tire. He replaced all 5 of his tires with another brand. We left this town…
