Equipment · Forest River, Inc.
Details
What's wrong: Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2019-2020 Cherokee trailers, model ckt294bh. The federal placard states incorrect cargo carrying capacity (ccc) and gross vehicle weight rating (gvwr) information, which may result in the trailer being overloaded.
Why it matters: An operator may rely on the incorrect placard information and overload the trailer causing a loss of control and increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Forest river has notified owners, providing replacement placards that contain accurate gross vehicle weight rating and cargo carrying capacity information, free of charge. The recall began June 24, 2019.
