What 2001 Airstream Land Yacht owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
The 2 rear duel tires experienced tread separation from the side walls while driving. This occurred because the tires were too small and could not support the weight of the motor home. There was a recall issued on the front tires which the manufacturer replaced with larger size tires, 275/70xza1.
While driving on rough, broken interstate pavement the motorhome bounced with the front end moving up then down causing vehicle to swerve to the right, the bouncing occured often and the right front tire was making contact with the upper portion of the wheel well. Nlm
