While operating the trailer within the manufacturer's published weight limits (GVWR: 20,000 lbs; Cargo Carrying Capacity: 4,258 lbs), we experienced repeated structural movement and frame flex during normal highway towing. Over time, the condition progressively worsened and resulted in movement of the upper deck structure, shifting and separation of interior walls and trim, door and frame misalignment, repeated structural popping noises while towing, visible distortion around structural components, and components shifting out of square. These symptoms were repeatable and occurred during normal use. The condition continued to worsen over the course of ownership rather than being an isolated incident.  Because the structural movement involved the primary frame and load-bearing portions of the trailer, we became increasingly concerned about the structural integrity of the unit during highway travel. The repeated movement and progression of the condition caused us to lose confidence in the trailer's ability to safely withstand normal towing forces, particularly while traveling with our family. As the condition worsened, we limited towing and ultimately sought a permanent resolution from the manufacturer.  The manufacturer was notified and inspected the trailer on multiple occasions. Repair attempts were performed; however, the structural symptoms continued to reoccur after those repairs. Ultimately, rather than continuing additional repairs, the manufacturer elected to provide a collateral exchange into a replacement trailer.  The original trailer is no longer in our possession because it was exchanged with the manufacturer. However, the VIN is known. I am submitting this complaint so there is a permanent safety record associated with this VIN and so NHTSA is aware of this structural defect of this model","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2022","productMake":"ALLIANCE RV","productModel":"VALOR","manufacturer":"Alliance RV, LLC"}]}]}
