Narrative

The vehicle was being towed from dealership to my residence after purchase. The frame came apart. An RV expert inspected it and found latent manufacturing issues and welding issues that are not up to industry standards. The RV expert is concerned there might be major issues with the manufacturing of these frames which may not meet industry standards and may not be safe to be on roadways.
