    Lippert Warranty Doesn't Care about safety!

    Last summer I had a serious leaf spring breakage in Oregon. Lippert replaced them with 3 leaf springs, the same kind that broke, and I only lost 2 days on the road. Unfortunately, Lippert only reimbursed me $65 for a brand new Goodyear 614 $315 dollar tire, and told me they don't warranty...

    Sheet metal damage

    Opened the slide out on top of a low utility trailer in storage, learned the lesson about always checking for clearance first. The damage is limited to a sheet metal section just behind the white plastic fender. It appears all that is needed is to drill out some rivets and replace the small...

    Slide-out damage to floor

    I have a new 2009 3600RL. The kitchen slideout is making an imprint on the linoleum. I am wondering if this is a common problem or if I could have something adjusted to overcome this. I am worried that if I put a mat down to protect the floor, it may get caught in the slideout.
