Details
What's wrong: Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain model year 2017 Salem and Wildwood recreational trailers manufactured August 9, 2016, to September 6, 2016. The federal placard on the affected vehicles incorrectly lists the tire and rim combination. The placard states st225/75r15 load range c tires with an inflation pressure of 50psi and a rim size of 15x6.0jj, however, the trailer is equipped with st225/75r15…
Why it matters: The incorrect tire information on the federal label may result in the operator under-inflating the tires. An underinflated tire may cause sudden tire failure, or poor handling, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Forest river will notify owners, and dealers will install a corrected federal placard, free of charge. The recall began on October 27, 2016. Salem
