Description of the problem	advised by public. Affairs@dot. Gov to forward to you for action extensive mold damage - compromised structural/suspension integrity due to water leakage fine/recall levied against manufacturer forest river (july 2015) for failure to comply reporting safety issues. We own a forest river salem cruise lite, bought new aug 2015, faulty construction/leaks since purchase. Repair done/not resolved. Brought in again & currently walls ripped out & extensive mold found by dealership. Dealer advocated for full replacement (technician had to leave unit due to mold). Forest river towed it from fl to goshen, in facility (walls ripped out, 1000+ miles on highways in high wind/structural integrity compromised due to damage, not to mention exposed mold). Monitor assigned to nhtsa ruling please be advised vehicle currently at factory if they'd like to see damage firsthand. As well, please see bbb complaints of safety issues not being handled. We asked the rep to address safety, he replied 'well, you did buy our base model. That's what we use to keep our production line going during the slow season'. If this isn't an admission of guilt, not sure what is. In other words, if we bought a corolla (base model) vs a camry.. Would it 'serve us right' if it had serious safety flaws.. Would the nhtsa be ok with that comment? We are urging someone (or the monitor assigned to the nhtsa ruling made in july 2015) ... Please go to the factory asap. Please address these serious safety issues that continue. Your ruling may have 'shifted' forest rivers practices, but still are allowing them to produce seriously flawed, unsafe products. This is 2nd attempt to fix water intrusion (now w/mold). We want refund/replacement, not a 'band-aid' as was suggested & failed last time! Can't in good faith re-sell this unit with history of leaking / mold. Unsafe to remain in! Please help!

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
