What's wrong?
The axle under a 2025 Cruiser Avenir travel trailer supports the trailer's weight and sets the wheel position inside the wheel well. On this model, the axle is an underslung setup, which places the axle tube in a way that affects ride height and tire clearance. The tires need open space around the wheel wells as the suspension moves over bumps and when the trailer is loaded.
On affected Avenir trailers, Cruiser says the wrong underslung axle was listed on the engineering prints. That axle does not give the tires enough clearance. As the trailer moves, the wheel wells can contact the tires. That contact can scuff, cut, or otherwise damage the tire sidewall or tread.
Owners can look for uneven tire wear or marks inside the wheel well where the tire has rubbed. Those marks are the warning signs Cruiser identified before a tire is damaged further.

What's the safety risk?
A damaged tire can blow out and increase the risk of a crash. Uneven tire wear or marks inside the wheel well are warning signs that the tire has contacted the wheel well. Drive cautiously and schedule the repair soon. Repair is free at any franchised Cruiser dealer.
What should I do?

What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Cruiser technician replaces the underslung axle so the trailer has the needed clearance between the wheel wells and tires. The recall repair is open, and parts and labor are covered. Cruiser used its standard reimbursement plan for this campaign. If you have already paid for an axle or tire clearance repair tied to this defect, bring documentation to the service desk and ask how to submit it under that plan.
