    However as an RV mechanic, we probably only see one trailer a year for frame work and that's in a high volume shop. If you treat the trailer right you should have no problem. If there's a defect it will show up the first year.
    That's what I figured which is too bad. Our trailer has been treated right and still have gotten cracks in the frame by the welds. These builders should be held to the same standard as vehicles when it comes to the frame.


    You apparently didn't know that your only suppose to use your RV 2-3 times per year, tow only on smooth roads, never get close to max weight rating and never go over 55mph, that way it will give 4-5 years of trouble free service!

  • Not sure about other manufacturers but Forest River has a one year warranty on manufacturers defects including the frame.
