NHTSA recall 17V573000
Equipment · Forest River, Inc.
Details
What's wrong: Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2015-2018 Vibe, and 2016-2018 Rainier recreational trailers. The liquid propane (lp) line may have insufficient clearance above the axle shackle.
Why it matters: Without adequate clearance, the lp line may be damaged, resulting in a propane leak, increasing the risk of a fire.
The fix: Forest river will notify owners, and dealers will replace the lp line with a longer one, routing it away from the axle hangers, free of charge. The recall began October 10, 2017.
