On certain travel trailers, the slide room arm may not have enough clearance from the driver side front tire. Under certain circumstances, the tire could come in contact with the slide mounting head, which could lead to tire failure resulting in a loss of vehicle control increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will install a lift kit between the axle(s) and the chassis in order to elevate the slide room away from the tire.
