What's wrong?

The floor frame on a 2018 Livin Lite Quicksilver TH 7X20 is the metal structure under the trailer deck. It supports the floor and living portion of the trailer while the trailer is parked and while it is being towed. Outriggers are smaller frame supports that extend from the main frame to carry the outer edges of that floor.

On affected trailers, a revised floor deck design added load to the floor frame structure. That extra load can overstress the outriggers and break their welds. When those supports fail, the living portion of the trailer loses the support it needs and the floor structure no longer sits as designed. Livin Lite's remedy uses increased reinforcement at the outriggers, which is visible during inspection.

Owners can notice the living portion of the trailer starting to sag. Inspecting the sagging area can show broken welds on the outriggers.

What's the safety risk?

Enough support structure failures can leave the trailer structurally unstable and increase the risk of a crash. If the living portion sags, stop using the trailer and have the sagging area inspected for broken outrigger welds before towing it again. Repair is free at any franchised Livin Lite dealer.

What should I do?

  1. Check your VIN to confirm your 2018 Livin Lite Quicksilver is included in this recall.
  2. Contact a franchised Livin Lite dealer to schedule the free frame support and outrigger reinforcement that stabilizes the trailer floor structure.
  3. Bring the recall notice if Livin Lite mailed one. If not, reference recall number 17V276 when you call.
  4. Ask the dealer for towing or transport guidance if the trailer feels unstable before the appointment.

What happens at the repair

At the dealer, a Livin Lite technician reinforces the outrigger frame structures that support the trailer floor and adds additional outriggers where the trailer needs more support. Parts and labor are covered under recall 17V276, so the repair is free. The work focuses on strengthening the floor support structure on the 2018 Quicksilver TH 7X20 trailer, which is the area identified in the recall. Call Livin Lite customer service or the dealer service desk before bringing the trailer in so they can confirm parts, scheduling, and how they want the trailer delivered.
