NHTSA recall 23V226000
Equipment · Forest River, Inc.
Details
What's wrong: Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2023 Cherokee ckt36fbop travel trailers. The safety chains may be insufficient for the gross vehicle weight rating (gvwr) listed on the federal placard, which can allow the trailer to detach. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 cfr part 567, "certification."
Why it matters: A trailer that detaches from a vehicle increases the risk of a crash.
The fix: Dealers will install a new federal placard, free of charge. All affected vehicles are still in dealer inventory and therefore no owner notification letters will be sent.
