2013 Jayco Jay Flight SwiftBody, doors & structure

While parked, our gray water tank became full, but before we could get a chance to empty it, the entire tank broke free from the camper and fell to the ground. This happened just hours after completing a 5 hour drive across state with the camper. Had it broken free while on the road, it could have caused a very serious accident. Upon contacting them, jayco refused to cover any portion of repairs, due to being out of warranty and refused to acknowledge the potential safety hazard this could have been, or that the...

tank falling off should not happen under normal circumstances. Internet research led us to another owner of the same make/model/year camper with the same issue. His was under warranty and the service manager refused to reattach the same tank, citing a safety issue, and got a new tank approved by jayco because the original tank (according to the post) " isn't holding its pre molded form and as a result deforms as it fills up. This deformation allows it to slip out of the l-brackets that hold it up".

2014 Jayco Jay Flight SwiftOther & unknown

2014 Jayco flight swift slx 154bh vin [[redacted]]. I bought this new from north trail rv, fort myers, fl. This is my first travel trailer, and experienced a learning curve. Had a good hitch with proper sway bars. After taking cross country trip in 2015-16, noticed tire wear was abnormal. Planned to replace them before next trip. Next trip coming up. In shopping for replacement tires, I've discovered the two original tires from jayco (grand ride power touring st175 80r 13 load range c- 6ply -rated to carry 1360 @...

50psi each) were rated insufficient to carry the listed gvwr of 3200lbs. The net weight of the trailer is listed as 2455 lb. I contacted jayco about this discrepancy. The first person agreed that the tire rating was for only 1360 each tire, two (2) tires equaling 2720. Lbs, which would be sufficient rating. The specs call for additional weight appx 755 lbs. That weight brings the load up to appx 3200lbs. Jayco rep said they didn't have those tires anymore and gave me a part # to replace tires and rims at a local dealer. When I asked why they would be selling an underrated tire on their trailers, they responded with "the nhtsa had never received a complaint, so they must be ok"? Something is wrong that jayco continues to sell tires underrated for their travel trailers. I will continue to shop for properly rated tires and consider myself lucky that nothing happened on my last long trip.
