We have had three wheels on our 2005 holiday rambler alumascape fifth-wheel break loose at the center portion of the wheel. these were all while we were away from home on long trips. we have had to purchase three replacement wheels---none are alike at the time, since they were purchased on the road where ever we were able to get one to fit the fifth wheel at the time. since this occurrence seemed odd to us, we checked to find out that there was a recall issued shortly after we purchased our rv. unfortunately, we never received a recall notice. we were notified each time by passing motorist who motioned for us to pull over and check our wheel. *tr |
