Details

What's wrong: Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2019 Coachmen Apex, Spirit, primetime Impression, and Tracer recreational trailers. The inner hub bearings may not have been sufficiently greased, which can cause the bearings to overheat and fail.

Why it matters: If the bearings overheat, the hub may fail, affecting handling and increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Forest river will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and repair the hubs and bearings, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began February 4, 2019.
