| Description of the problem | The mid entry door was locked and would not open. Crawled into the rv and had to take the door lock apart in order to open. This took 30 plus minutes and if a child had been locked in or if there were a fire the situation would be life threatening. Checked the lock and the door locking shaft broken in half. Photo attached that shows broken shaft. My rv is now with poulsbo rv to be fixed. |
