If, tire failure had occurred at highway speed, could have been severe event. Cruiser rv would not accept any responsibility for the required replacement of failed axles that created the tire wear. Replacement axles were provided by lippert components the manufacture of original axles. Consumer paid for labor for replacement of axles and required new tires. Failure of axles to hold the weight of the unit is a major structural failure that could cause a major incident.
