After pulling my 2016 COACHMEN CHAPARRAL TRL 5WHL for about five hours I arrived at my destination and observed that driver side front tire tread had separated and was ready to blow. A Sailun S637 ST235/80R16, DOT 1YJ276PLY. The tire was purchased approximately 1-year earlier and had less than four thousand miles of use.
NHTSA complaint 11484118THE LEAD SPRING BROKE. NO ADDITIONAL WEIGHT. NOT ROUGH ROAD. SINCE IT WAS A MANUFACTURE DEFECT MY AAA INSURANCE WILL NOT COVER IT. WE WERE LUCK TO BE ABLE TO PULL OVER IN A SOMEWHAT SAFE SPACE. A FEW MINUTES EARLIER IT WOULD HAVE BEEN A DISASTEROUS ACCIDENT ON A 2 LANE MOUNTAIN CLIP ROAD. EVEN TOWING SERVICE AND REPAIR MABN SAID THIS IS A RARE MANUFACTURE DEFECT. WE ARE NOW UNCOMFORTABLE NOT TRUSTING THE DURABILITY OF OUR TRAILER WHICH IS LESS THAN 3 YEARS OLD. WHILE IN MOTION IT APPEARED AS A FLAT TIRE, BUT INSTEAD ONE OF THE LEAFS COMPLETELY BROKE WITH THE TRAILER NOW SITTING ON THE AXEL AND TIRE
