	I have a 2010 fuzion fz398 touring edition 2 these trailers were built with the axles mounted to far forward causing severe handling issues if you use the garage area for cargo.keystone recommends 20 to 25% pin weight when loading these trailers this cannot be done with the current axle placement.keystone knows this and has moved the axles back 20 inches on the 2011 models but has not issued any sort of recall.i weighed my trailer and even though i am under gvwr i only have 10-11 % pin weight this causes swaying and bucking with the trailer and literally pulls the truck all over the road.this is a dangerous situation with a trailer this size.on the vehicle information page fuzion was not an option so i selected raptor my trailer is a 2010 fuzion fz398.
