THE AC STILL DOESN'T COMPLETELY COOL THE CABIN BUT IT IS AT LEAST PUTTING OUT COOL AIR WE STILL HAVE TO USE FANS TO HELP MOVE THE COLD AIR AROUND.

WHILE CAMPING IT BEGAN TO RAIN SO WE CLOSED ALL THE WINDOWS AND TURNED ON THE AC IT NEVER REALLY COOLED THE CABIN SO WE THOUGHT MAYBE NEEDED TIME SO THE NEXT MORNING WE HAD IT ON FULL BLAST AND LEFT TO GO SEE THE LITTLE WHITE HOUSE AND WHEN WE GOT BACK LATER THAT AFTERNOON MAYBE 4PM. WHEN THE DOOR WAS OPENED EXTREMELY HOT AIR HIT ME IN THE FACE AND I COULD HARDLY BREATHE IT WAS SO HOT IN THE TRAILER. GOOD THING I LEFT MY DOG AT HOME OR HE WOULD HAVE DIED IN THE TRAILER FROM A HEAT STROKE!!! THE WINDOW UNIT IS IN A CABINET WITH A VENT IN THE BACK BUT THE EXHAUST AIR IS NOT SEPARATED FROM THE INTAKE AIR AND IT RECYCLES ITS OWN HOT AIR! SO THE CABINET ON TOP OF THE AC WAS SO HOT IT MELTED THE BAG OF MARSHMALLOWS TURNED MY BANANAS BLACK, AND THE HANDLES ON ALL THE DRAWERS AND CABINET THAT WAS ON THE SAME ISLAND WITH THE AC WAS VERY HOT TO THE TOUCH! WE RETURNED THE CAMPER A 3RD TIME FOR REPAIRS THEY FOUND THAT SHASTA DID NOT WIRE THE EXHAUST FAN INTO THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM!!!

THE TRAILER SHOULD HAVE BEEN EQUIPPED WITH TRAILER TIRES, NOT PASSENGER TIRES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THIS BY AN AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER. THEY'VE NOT ACCEPTED ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR SUBSTITUTING THE APPROPRIATE TIRES. THE COACH HAS BEEN DESIGNATED UNSAFE FOR USE BY MULTIPLE ENGINEERS WHO SPECIALIZE IN ROAD SAFETY.

COKE TIRE - THIS IS A NEW FOREST RIVER SHASTA AIRFLYTE TRAVEL TRAILER WHICH HAS WHITEWALL COKER PASSENGER TIRES ON IT. I BELIEVE THIS IS THE MANUFACTURE LINK HTTPS://WWW.COKERTIRE.COM/P225-75R15-COKER-CLASSIC-2-3-4-WHITEWALL.HTML THE TIRES WERE PROVIDED BY SHASTA AS A STOCK OPTION. THE TIRES HAVE INADEQUATE CLEARANCE AND AS A RESULT ARE RUBBING INSIDE THE WHEEL WELL BOTHER LATERALLY AND VERTICALLY. I NOTIFIED MY DEALER AND WARRANTY WORK WAS COMPLETED ON MY SUSPENSION TO IMPROVE CLEARANCE.* NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE IN REGARDS TO THE TIRES. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN. VISIBLE RUBBING IN IS THE TOP OF THE WHEEL WELL. TIRE SIZE = ST225/75R15D DESIGNED FOR PASSENGER CARS. THE STICKERS ON THE SIDE OF MY CAMPER INFORMS ME TO INFLATE THE COKER TIRE TO 35 PSI AND TIRE ITSELF INDICATES 35PSI MAXIMUM INFLATION. (I KNOW OF FOLKS IN THE SHASTA CAMPER CLUB WITH A DIFFERENT STICKER OF 65PSI. THEIR CAMPERS WERE MANUFACTURED BEFORE MINE. THEY HAVE NOT BEEN NOTIFIED TO CHANGE THE PSI. WE HAVE NO IDEA WHO HAS THE CORRECT INFORMATION AS THE COMPANY IS NOT OPENLY COMMUNICATING. POTENTIALLY WE ARE BOTH WRONG.) I CONSIDER THIS SITUATION TO BE A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN WHICH FOREST RIVER IS NOT TAKING SERIOUSLY. THERE WILL BE A TOTAL OF 1,941 UNITS BUILT AND THEY WILL ALL HAVE THE SAME 'STOCK' WHITEWALL TIRES. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE RUBBING CAN CAUSE A BLOWOUT AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. *SHASTA (FR SUBSIDIARY) IMPLEMENTED A WARRANTY (SHACKLE ATTACHMENT TO SPRING) TO MY CAMPER INDICATING THAT IT WOULD HELP WITH THE CLEARANCE BUT I DO NOT SEE A DIFFERENCE. WITH THIS TIRE IN PLACE, I HAVE ABOUT A ~2' TIRE CLEARANCE AND RUBBING OF TIRES CONTINUES TO BE A CONCERN. THE LEAF SPRINGS CONTINUE TO APPEAR TO BE FLATTENED WITH LESS THAN 200 MILES ON THE COACH.

May 22, 2015

Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain model year 2013-2015 Coachmen Shasta SHT27RL travel trailers manufactured May 7, 2013, to May 7, 2015. The affected trailers may have an incorrect gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) information stated on the Federal Weight Tags. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification."

Consequence & remedy

Consequence: Incorrect GVWR information on the label may lead the operator to load the trailer to an incorrect weight, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.

Remedy: Forest River will notify owners, and dealers will replace the incorrect label with a corrected label, free of charge. The recall began on June 23, 2015. Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-574-825-8717. Forest River's number for this recall is 53-05132015-0035.
