Deborahheinz Report post Posted February 4 I’m writing in reference to a 33 foot travel trailer. It has one slide on the drivers side toward the back of the trailer. When parked on a level blacktop surface and the trailer is level the back end of the frame is clearly lower or sagging. The dealer acknowledges that the back end is 1/2 an inch lower than the front. The manufacturer states that this is within normal parameters and will not take any action, so the dealer has taken the same position. Is this correct and common? I would think the slide out would be at risk of failing since the frame is not level. Looking for any I thoughts and suggestions. Thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rayin Report post Posted February 12 (edited) At this point about all you can do is obtain written statements of their position on this matter for future substantiation in case of further damage. Keep in contact with Grand Design customer service, kinda like the squeaky wheel analogy. Communicate via email or snail mail, so you have everything in writing. Document everything said JIC this goes to legal action. Edited February 12 by rayin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deborahheinz Report post Posted February 13 Thanks Bill, the problem is that no one has identified what the “ fix” would be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wildebill308 Report post Posted February 13 Have you done a search of You Tube? Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deborahheinz Report post Posted February 13 Bill, yes I have done a YouTube search. All I found was sag when being towed. I found nothing that addresses a 1/2 inch sag in the actual frame of the trailer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
erniee Report post Posted February 14 1/2 inch deviation over 33 feet seems to be- not much. If everything works, nothing has fallen off , just hit the road. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dadeoo Report post Posted Wednesday at 01:57 PM Have the frame inspected. If the sag isn't all in the same place, then it's probably not a big deal. Look for cracks, bent beams, and hardware failure. If there aren't any you are probably OK. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
