Out on a recent tripstarted talk to a fellow RVer, he said that he had a Montana and they he had major fram problem, he claimed it is very common with Montana's.

Hi Leon,

There has been some posts on frame problems, but out of tens of thousands of Keystone RV's sold, I wouldn't say it is a major problem. Under search up above type in "frame" and in Search by date make sure you go to " in the last year"
You can read up on a few of them. Hope this helps.

The guy is correct but he is WAY behind..They had frame stress issues , as did other brand manufacturers but the problem was resolved long ago.

You stated that Keystone has resolved frame problems, when I'm still having problems and the small triangle gussets were also added to the frame. I'm about to post some pictures of the repair that was done at my dealer,at the request of Keystone, not good. Larry & LaVonne

The first Montanas 99-01 had some problems with the 8 inch frame. Service advisory 00-8 was then performed free of charge for everybody that would bring in their units. The fix was in the area of the wheels and amounted to a frame upgrade. This upgrade was an expensive repair for Keystone and a great one. I consider my frame as strong as the 10 inch frames.
