| Description of the problem | I received a letter from lippert inc. Indicating that there were issues with brake components installed on my columbus 320rs fifth wheel that could lead to a failure to stop the trailer. I took it into berryland campers and had them inspected. The lippert seals used on the wheel assemblies had leaked grease, contaminating the brake pads with grease. Lippert covered pad and seal replacement under warranty. |
