Rockwood 8329SS
Hello, We purchased new a 2013 8329SS, never had any issues up to this point, now we only traveled about 7,000 miles and wanted to replace the tires. We were told that the top of the tires have been rubbing on the underside of the trailer, not all the time but probably when hitting bumps or parking the trailer at the campgrounds. The problem is the clearance between the underside and the top of the tire.
The clearance was always real close, but since the trailer was new we assumed it was correct. Now since we wanted to purchase new tires it has become a safety issue. We have contacted Forest River several times since there was recalls for the same issue on other trailers (But was told the 8329SS was not in the recall). Sent pictures, etc but not getting a response yet as to how to fix.
So, if you have a 8329SS travel trailer look under and above each tire to see if you are having rubbing issues, this is a potential issue and severe damage could occur if the rubbing continues, either to the tire or underside of the trailer.
Has anyone else had this issue, we purchased this trailer new in October 2013 and it was one of the first produced of this model, maybe the problem has been corrected on newer models, or maybe not.
