I have a 2007 Wildcat 27RLS. It sat in storage for 3 months this summer. When wanting to use the unit in Sept. I found that a panel in our shower was shattered. I now have a new glass ordered and find it is very expensive. Our dealer told us he didn't think it was from the heat from sun shinning through the sky light. Any comments?Also, while the dealer was repacking my wheel's he found a buldge in a tire. Carlyle tires any comment on these. Dealer stated that they are the worst tire we could have on the RV. Have only 10,000 miles in less than 3 years of use. And, I keep them covered. Comments please. Happy Rving!!

Had the shower door shatter for no reason. There was no one in the trailer. Talked to someone else who had the same thing happen while watching Tv in the main area. He said it sounded like gunfire when it went. Never did find a reason mine went. Trailer was about 5 months old at the time. Little pieces of glass went all over the bedroom and down the stairs of my 5er into the kitchen. Mine was replaced under warranty but there was a bunch of discussion before they agreed to it. I know they thought I broke it, but I really didn't.Can't speak to your tire question.

Check for glass with a glass and mirror professional company. Might be a pleasant and less expensive experience. I never had glass break so couldn't imagine why that would happen.

Most of the time that glass breaks like that it is heat on one side, sun etc. Your tire experience is normal for that tire type. If you go read their web site they acknowledge those miles and life span to be about it.www.carlisletransportationproducts.com/product/tires/trailers-toy-haulers-towables/radial-trail-rhRead page 93 and 94 in sliding panel or PDF.There are better tire types available.

Shower stall glass would be tempered glass.Yes, it is expensive.Replacement should also be tempered.Better to have little glass cubes than glass slivers if it breaks again.
