  ON 9-3-15 THE FRONT AXLE PERCHS/SHACKLE BRACKETS BROKE WHILE DRIVING, COSTING $421.42 IN REPAIRS. ON 5-5-17 THE REAR AXLE PERCHS/SHACKLE BRACKETS BROKE WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, CAUSING THE AXLE TO FALL ONTO THE GROUND AND RUPTURING THE PROPANE LINE. THE SHACKLE REPAIR COST $158.00 IN REPAIRS. THE PROPANE LINE IS SCHEDULED TO BE FIXED ON 6-5-17. THE CAUSE IS OBVIOUSLY POOR/FAULTY WELDING AND/OR FRAME DESIGN BY THE COACHMAN TRAILER COMPANY.
