Question Vista Cruiser. Any axle problems?

Hi, I'm new to the forum.

Previously owned 2004 Jayco Jayflight 29BHS. Looking to downsize with smaller vehicle rated at 3600 pounds towing.

Considering Vista Cruiser 19ERD, 2015 to current years, used or new. Looks good for weight. Features show that queen bed is north-south (no crawling over each other), and dinette has 3 panoramic windows.

We saw some older Visa models, but read a lot online about inner tire wear and bad axles. In fact, we viewed a 2011 model with exactly that problem. Used trailer dealer was "unaware" of the axle problem.

Is there any way to permanently correct the problem? Online blogs indicate that alignments, new tires, and new axle are only temporary fixes and that problem reoccurs.

Has the axle and tire wear problem been resolved with the model change from Visa to Vista designs?

Are there any other problems or quirks with the Vista units?

What features or options should we consider if buying new? (eg. electric lift, electric awning, bumper-mount barbecue, etc.)

Any comments are welcome.

Thanks.
Andrew
