THE TRAVEL TRAILER WAS BEING TOWED IN ALACHUA COUNTY WHEN IT BEGAN TO SWAY VIOLENTLY. MY HUSBAND WAS TRAVELING AT 50MILES PER HOUR. THE TRAILER TOOK CONTROL OF THE TRUCK AND CAUSED THE TRUCK TO SWERVE THROUGH ALL 3 LANES AND DO A 180 DEGREE TURN. THE ACCIDENT WAS CAUSED BECAUSE THE TRAILER HAD A BENT AXLE. THIS WAS NOT KNOWN TO ME OR MY HUSBAND AT THE TIME. THE FLORDIA HIGHWAY PATROL /TROOPER STATED THAT MY HUSBAND WAS NOT AT FAULT AND THE ACCIDENT WAS UNAVOIDABLE. THE TRAILER WAS REPAIRED IN LAKE CITY, FLORIDA BY A PERSON WHO HAS MORE THAN 25 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE. THE PERSON WHO REPAIRED THE AXLE HAS THE OLD ONE. I ALSO TOOK PICTURES OF THE AXLE. APPARENTLY IT IS POSSIBLE TO BEND THIS TYPE OF AXLE RELATIVELY EASILY AND NOT BE AWARE OF IT. SUBSEQUENTLY THE TRAILER WOULD BE MIS-ALIGNED AND CAN CAUSE THIS TYPE OF AN ACCIDENT ACCORDING TO THE PERSON WHO HAS 25 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE AND REPAIRED OUR TRAILER. IT WAS ALMOST A NEAR DEATH SITUATION ON I -75 SOUTH WHERE THE TRAFFIC IS TRAVELING AT 70-80 MILES PER HOUR. WE ARE VERY FORTUNATE TO BE ALIVE. OUR TRUCK HAD OVER $3000 WORTH OF DAMAGE. *TR

Tires
NEW MICHELIN XRV TIRE INSTALLED AT FACTORY ON 2003 CONDOR MOTOR HOME CLASS A IN THE RIGHT REAR INSIDE POSITION BADLY OUT OF ROUND CAUSING VIBRATION.. MICHELIN DID REPLACE TIRE WITHOUT ANY PROBLEM. *AK
ON CERTAIN MOTOR HOMES AND TRAVEL TRAILERS EQUIPPED WITH SAMSUNG MICROWAVE OVENS, THESE OVENS WERE PRODUCED WITH A DEFECTIVE PANEL. AN ELECTRICAL SHORT CAN OCCUR BETWEEN CIRCUIT PATTERNS ON THE MEMBRANE PANEL, ESPECIALLY OVERLAPPED BY A "JUMPER" OR JUMP WIRE. THIS MAY CAUSE THE OVEN TO ACTIVATE WITHOUT PRESSING ANY KEY PADS.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: AN ELECTRICAL SHORT CAN OCCUR CAUSING THE OVEN TO ACTIVATE WITHOUT PRESSING ANY KEY PADS. THIS COULD RESULT IN EXCESSIVE HEAT, SMOKE, OR POSSIBLY A FIRE.
Remedy: SAMSUNG WILL NOTIFY CUSTOMERS AND REPAIR THE PANEL FREE OF CHARGE. IN THE MEANTIME, CONSUMERS SHOULD UNPLUG THEIR MICROWAVE, IF POSSIBLE. IF THE CONSUMER IS UNABLE TO UNPLUG THE MICROWAVE, THEY SHOULD LEAVE THE DOOR AJAR UNTIL THE PANEL IS REPLACED. CONSUMERS SHOULD NEVER USE THE MICROWAVE OVEN FOR STORAGE OR LEAVE ANY TOWELS, PAPER, CLOTH OR OTHER PRODUCTS IN THE MICROWAVE AFTER USE. OWNERS WHO TAKE THEIR VEHICLES TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER ON AN AGREED UPON SERVICE DATE AND DO NOT RECEIVE THE FREE REMEDY WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME SHOULD CONTACT SAMSUNG AT 800-932-3837 OR R-VISION AT 574-268-2111.
