 Description of the problemWe have a 2010 silverback 30wre 5th wheel trailer. This was only our second outing - having a maximum of 300 miles on it. While driving down the road, someone noticed a problem with our tire - - -what really happened was that the nut holding the wheel bearings on came loose on both axles on the drivers side - back axle tire almost came all the way off - we lost in transit both bearings, races, and brakes were gone, the rim and shaft are both torn off. We were lucky we hadn't gotten to the highway yet! I hate to think what would have happened at rush hour in denver, co traffic. Nylon locknuts nearly melted off and clearly can't hold the weight- - why don't they use castle nuts and cotter pins? Cheap stuff could have cost someone their lives on the highway. Trailer has not been pulled with full tanks - 1/4 tank full. We were well below recommended weight limits. We also question proper titling of our vehicle since title says its a 2010. Floor plan, design, etc. Match 2009. Please help.
