Description of the problem	On april 18, 2005 i picked up my car trailer from the dealer. I began towing my trailer home and noticed an extreme amount of instability with the way it was towing. I proceeded towards my house and slowed way down. I continued traveling and the trailer continued to sway. I wrecked the trailer shortly before i got home with it. I immediately had the trailer taken to a repair facility to be measured for improprieties to which they found many problems. I consulted mike of team spirit to which he instructed me that they did not use those particular measurements. He said they measured from the center of the wheel to the center of the other wheel and he guaranteed to me that these measurements would be correct. I immediately had these measurements taken and i contacted mike again. I informed him that these measurements were 1/2" off and i asked him what needed to be done. He said the axles need to be properly placed and told me that the insurance company was trying to put the blame on him. He instructed me to contact his attorney with any further questions. I contacted him a few days later for the name of his attorney. I am not satisfied that this trailer is safe and that can be easily repaired. I have been misled about the quality of this trailer and could have easily been killed by the manufacturers carelessness. The trailer is manufactured by team spirit of elkhart, inc. 56616 elk park drive, elkhart, in 46516 (574) 266-2966 model no:tsce-10222t2
