What's wrong?
The spare tire carrier on a 2019 Keystone Bullet Crossfire is the rack mounted to the rear wall that holds the trailer's spare tire while the trailer is moving. It needs to be fastened into the wall backer, the reinforced support hidden inside the rear wall, so the weight of the tire stays secured through bumps, turns, and vibration.
On affected Bullet Crossfire trailers, the carrier was not consistently mounted into that backer. When the fasteners miss the reinforced support or do not hold as designed, the rear wall alone carries load it was not meant to carry. The carrier can loosen and detach from the trailer, taking the spare tire with it.
The warning sign is a loose spare tire carrier. Check for movement at the carrier, gaps at the mounting points, or hardware that no longer sits tight against the rear wall.
