my order to ship in approximately 3-4 weeks. 6/10/2014, I did not receive my lock yet so I emailed fastec, letting them know I originally emailed on 4/25/2014 but have not received my replacement lock and asked for a status. I did not hear back from them. My wife had then emailed fastec somewhere around july 1st asking for a status. 7/3/2014, Fastec replied,"i am sorry for your inconvenience. We are currently working on march the 1st orders for the recall. Due to the volume of orders we have fallen behind on getting orders out. Thank you for your patience with us during this time." 9/14/2014, As of this date I have still not heard back from fasco or received a replacement deadbolt lock.

The fresh water holding tank falls out of the bottom of the trailer onto the trailer axles when filled. This happened 6 months after purchase from dealership which was the third time we used the trailer. The dealer came out and fixed it the first two times. It spent 3 months in the dealership the last time it was fixed. This has happened now three times in 6 years and everytime we use the trailer. Once the tank falls down it's on the axles and can't be moved. It also pulls out the overflow hose causing water to leak out and into the rv. *Tr
