| Description of the problem | I was traveling at 60 mph on highway 87 north of great falls mt. At about 4:40 in the afternoon on september 4th 2020, the tread of rear tire on the drivers side of my 2016 forest river travel trailer came apart from the rest of the tire. After getting the trailer back under control and brought to a safe stop it was noticed that substantial damaged was caused to the trim surrounding, above and behind the tire, as well as damage to the trailers plumbing that was behind the tire, along with damage to the underneath of the trailer including the wires for the trailer breaks being torn out from the hub. The tread that came off the tire along with some of the broken plumbing struck the car that was behind us. Luckily after talking with the individual, the damage that their car substained was minimal. They were along with myself was glad that it was a rental and they bought the extra insurance. |
