NHTSA recall 19V191000
Equipment · Forest River, Inc.
Details
What's wrong: The federal placard indicates that the vehicles have 3,500 lb. Capacity axles, whereas the vehicles actually have 2,500 lb. Capacity axles.
Why it matters: The incorrect label may cause the trailer to be overloaded, possibly resulting in a loss of control and increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Forest river has notified owners and provided replacement placards that contain the accurate axle weight capacity information, free of charge. The recall began on March 18, 2019.
