| Description of the problem | Purchased a new rockwood freedom electric lift pop-up camper. Used the camper a total of five times and replaced the winch motor once after it stopped working. While on vacation in utah i was setting up the camper, i raised the camper roof with the winch and went inside to push out the beds and grab the safety braces. While i was still inside the roof fell on me causing injury. Upon examination of the winch motor the bar that the cable wraps around broke on the right side and the cable spooled off and the roof fell. |
