The hitch side of the roof began to collapse where the roof met the front curved panel. We experienced water and leaking issues despite our regular maintenance of seals. We finally took it into a repair business to have the roof opened up to determine the cause. The roof panel was not secured to the framing. Due to this the roof panel had completely separated and pulled apart, leaving a large cavity the width of the trailer. My primary concern is that this could have posed some serious risks while transporting this...

at high speeds. My secondary concern is not only what else was possibly not properly secured, but are any other trailers made with ours also not properly secured. I attempted to reach out to the company prior to this incident for the 12mo warranty information and after this incident via the better business bureau. They have been consistently non-responsive. We carry insurance on our vehicle but I worry about continuing to transport it, in case there are other framing issues hidden we have not yet found.
Nothing went wrong yet!! But the diode at the converter will cause a slow burn effect that can start a fire on the 120 volt line when converting too 12 voltage the diode should never be used like this the diode should only be used to covert from 120 volt to 12 volt at the lowest possible power or wattage like at an ignitor the power/wattage at the converter is to high you must isolate the 120 volt system from the dc system and run separate then use multiple diodes to make the power/wattage for the source that is...

why you have fires in trailers, so please recall all trailers that have these 120 volt to 12 volt converters. I'm telling you the heat factor is to high/hot!!!! Especially when the batteries don't get disconnected when using the 120 volt hook up at the same time, because most people don't even know the difference on disconnecting each system it was stationary. I have also noted that a low voltage disconnect switch on one pole doesn't solve this problem because the common still draws to the 120 volt system which causes an over current through the ground and causes a fire. Call me at [[redacted]] I have a solution!!!*Dt redacted to protect personally identifiable information pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.S.C. 552(B)(6)*jb
