Details

What's wrong: Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2020 Vengeance vgf311a13-ws-73 trailers. The federal placard has the incorrect axle rating, tire/wheel size, and tire psi. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (fmvss) number 120, "wheels and rims-other than passenger cars" and part 567, "certification."

Why it matters: The incorrect federal placard may result in the operator unknowingly overloading the vehicle, increasing the risk of a loss of control, and the risk of a crash.

The fix: Forest river will notify owners, and dealers will provide replacement placards that contain the accurate information, free of charge. The recall began January 30, 2020.
