2022 CLIPPER TOWABLE CWT272RLS
ID: 2109576EQUIPMENT:RECREATIONAL VEHICLE/TRAILER:PLUMBING:POTABLE WATER:STORAGE TANK
I purchased a 2022 Forest River Clipper Model #272RLS on 10-28-2023. We put it in storage for the winter and took it out for the first time on May 19-2024. Driving down the freeway at 70 miles an hour the water tank fell out and was dragging on the road. We took it to the dealer the next day. We received a Recall NHTSA RECALL: 24V339 FOREST RIVER ID: 121-1777. The fix was to add another strap. Myself and the dealership did not think this was adequate. We did not get our trailer back until 8-19-2024 and were unable to use it again. On June 26th we were taking it out for the first time and as we were filling it with water, the tank fell out of the brackets and ripped the hose. The tank was too small and the straps were not strong enough to hold the weight. I am very concerned about the safety hazard this could cause if someone else got the same fix. This could cause serious injury or death. Coachman put a bandage on it instead of being concerned about peoples safety and fixing it correctly. I am attaching some photos, the recall letter and the warranty invoice. If you need any further information please contact me. I believe these trailers should be recalled again and be fixed appropriately instead of allowing Coachman to save some money instead of saving a life.
