To whom it may concern: we had purchased our 2005 fleetwood pegasus from dan gamels camp america in 2007 (fresno, ca.). We recently went on a road trip with our trailer and the side paneling on the passenger side ripped off as we were on the road. As of today, I have not be able to get a hold of the dealer because they went out of business and the insurance company will not repair the damages on the trailer. The insurance company claims it has dry rot and it had been leaking for a long time. The trailer IS fairly new and we would like someone to investigate the issue. We feel that the travel trailer had defective seals on the top which caused the water to flow downward ruining the entire trailer with dry rot and causing the paneling to rip off during our recent trip. Please feel free to contact me through email or phone. sincerely, [xxxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(B)(6)

This investigation was opened based on odi's receipt of a congressional letter on behalf of a constituent.the constituent reported incidents where the slide out room of his motor home would inadvertently move (extend) during highway use.odi was concerned that a fully extended slide out would degrade the vehicle's dynamic handling characteristics and/or possibly impact an object or another vehicle, resulting in a crash.odi contacted fleetwood and discovered that slide out rooms were installed in motor homes, travel trailers and folding trailers. As part of the investigation odi visited a rv show and the fleetwood paxinos plant to examine slide outs in various new make and model vehicles and gain an understanding of how the systems work.during the investigation odi learned that there are two methods used to extend slide out rooms.some manufacturers use hydraulic systems and others, such as fleetwood, use an electric motor.
