WAS DRIVING ON 10 FREEWAY IN CALIFORNIA WAS MOTIONED BY A PASSING CAR THAT WE HAD A PROBLEM WITH SPARE TIRE ON THE BACK OF OUR RV FIFTHWHEEL. WHEN WE PULLED OVER THE SPARE TIRE WAS NEARLY ON THE GROUND. THE BUMPER WHICH HOLDS THE SPARE TIRE HAD BASICALLY RIPPED AND WAS PEELING AWAY( FROM THE WELDS )AND WAS JUST BARELY HOLDING ON. WHEN WE BOUGHT THE FIFTHWHEEL (BRAND NEW, NOT USED) WE DID NOT ADD OR CHANGE ANYTHING. WE FOUND RECALLS ON THIS EXACT THING,BUT WHEN NOTIFING KEYSTONE ALL THEY WOULD SAY WAS IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AND RECALL NOT GOOD ON OUR YEAR. I ASKED SEVERAL TIMES FOR SOMEONE HIGHER UP TO TALK TO BUT WAS NOT GIVEN ANY INFORMATION. THIS BICYCLE RACK/ BUMPER WAS INSTALLED BY FACTORY AND WAS RECALLED ON 2008,2010,2012 MODELS. THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED A MAJOR ACCIDENT ON A VERY BUISY FREEWAY AND KEYSTONE IS NOT INTERESTED IN HELPING WITH THIS PROBLEM
