NHTSA recall 17V141000
Equipment · Forest River, Inc.
Details
What's wrong: Forest River Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2017 Prime Time manufacturing Crusader recreational trailers, model csf338rsk. The federal placard indicates that the trailers have axles that have a capacity of 7,000 lbs when their actual capacity is 6,000 lbs. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 cfr part 567, "certification."
Why it matters: Incorrect axle information on the placard can result in the trailer being overloaded, causing a loss of control and increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Forest river will notify owners and dealers will replace the federal placard with a corrected placard, free of charge. The recall began on March 20, 2017.
