What 2005 Forest River Cherokee owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
Structure failure of toung , a frame of travel trailer. We just purchased a barely used 2005 forest river travel trailer 2 months ago. We were coming home from a short trip when the front of our trailer fell to the ground causing sparks from the trailer dragging on the ground we immediately pulled over and the a frame had bent. The trailer is not usable we are trying to contact the manufacturer but they are not responding. We are unable to move the trailer it is unsafe and would cause an accident if it was towed anywhere even for repairs.
