NHTSA recall 18V222000
Equipment, Tires · Forest River, Inc.
Details
What's wrong: Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2018 Forest River Surveyor recreational trailers, model orsvt247bhds. The federal placard on these vehicles incorrectly indicate a tire size of st225/75r15d needing 65 psi and a rim designation of 15x6.0jj, however, the vehicle is actually equipped with st205/75r14c tires needing 50 psi and a rim designation of 14x5.5jj. As such, these vehicles fail to comply…
Why it matters: If the operator goes by the incorrect information on the federal placard they can over inflate the tires and cause premature tire wear, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Forest river has notified owners and provided a corrected federal placard, free of charge. The recall began on April 11, 2018.
