In Dec 2019 we bought a new 2019 20ft Springdale TT. We took it on one trip and the brakes did not feel like they were fully engaging. I took it into the dealer (Camping World, Roseville CA)... They tore it apart and I was told that all four of the seals leaked and they contacted Keystone. Keystone authorized the replacement of backing plates, bearings, seals, magnets and brake pads.

How does a brand new trailer with 400miles on leak grease out all four seals.... I asked the tech and all they said is that "it happens sometimes..." Should I call the factory...did I get a batch of defective seals? I don't know what type of axle it has...

We have a trip to Yellowstone on the books for next month... should I be concerned about the seals going bad again?
