Details

What's wrong: When an affected trailer hits a large bump or pot hole, the trailer tire may contact the bottom of the floor.

Why it matters: As a result, the tire may become damaged and possibly blow out which may cause a loss of control, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Forest river will notify owners, and dealers will add a lift kit between the frame and the axle mounting brackets, free of charge.
