Details

What's wrong: Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain model year 2014 Crusader fifth wheel trailers, model csf315rst, manufactured September 26, 2013, through March 3, 2014. In the affected trailers, the slide room actuator bracket may come into contact with the tire under certain road conditions.

Why it matters: If the bracket comes in contact with the tire, sudden tire failure may result, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Forest river will notify owners, and dealers will install a replacement bracket that will adequately clear the tire, free of charge. The recall began on April 17, 2014.
