TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 FOREST RIVER PRIME TIME. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ALUMINUM FRAME WELD WAS BROKEN WITHIN THE CAMPER'S VEHICLE WALLS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CALLED AND THEY STATED THAT THE ISSUE WAS THE CONTACT'S FAULT. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE CONTACT SAW THAT INITIALLY THERE WAS A THREE YEAR STRUCTURAL WARRANTY ON THE VEHICLE BUT THE MANUFACTURER STATED THEY ONLY OFFERED A ONE YEAR WARRANTY. THEY LATER OFFERED A PARTIAL REPAIR COST TO PAY BY THE CONTACT OF $1,500 TO $2,000. THEY ALSO PROMISED A CALLBACK BUT HAVE NOT RETURNED A CALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE. *BF CONSUMER SAYS THAT THE MAJOR CONCERN IS THAT THE WELDS IN THE WALLS OF THE FIFTH WHEEL ARE A STRUCTURAL DEFECT. CONSUMER STATES THAT THEY DID NOTHING TO CAUSE THE WELDS TO BREAK AND OVER TIME THE PROBLEM WILL GET WORSE. *DL
