2020 Eclipse AttitudeWheels & tires

The vehicle identification sticker states the wheels are 15' but they installed 16' we complained about it and they installed a leaf spring lift kit and did tot correct the wheel size. This was all related a tire clearance issue if any mud was on the tire it would rub on the top of the wheel well .The first fix as noted was 04/20/2020 on 02/27/2021 when the rv was sent to the factory for more repairs I again told them the tire size was not been resolved and they agreed to order the 15' tires on 03/29/2021 and we get the same answer when calling to see if the new tires and wheels are in they say there is a tire shortage.

The below information is regarding my 2014 attitude 23fb with a manufacturer defect while I was driving . We were driving home from our family trip traversing on a 2 way road along a cliff and the left rear 2nd axle tire blew out. We barely were able to pull off the road. I put out our warning devices and also had my wife try to slow and divert traffic to the next lane. I purchased 4 new tires for my rv on march,20 2021 and in total they only have 210 miles on them at the time of the incident. When I got home I...

performed an examination of the trailer to figure out what went wrong. I found that the tire rubbed so hard against the trailer that the tire blew out. Now there is damage to the inner fender wheel and interior of the trailer. Upon inspecting the suspension, I found multiple cracks, poor structural support, welds that have no penetration, suspension hangers, and frame twisting. Although I am extremely thankful neither myself nor my family were hurt in this incident I do still feel this is truly gross negligence and this needs to be repaired immediately. I am more than willing to cooperate with eclipse and/or lippert to make arrangements for the repairs and have the rv towed there since the rv is unfit dot compliance.
