What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling one 2018 Haulin' Cargo trailer. The labels on this vehicle may list incorrect tire pressure information. As such, the trailer fails to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims," and the trailer fails to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification."

The risk

The wrong tire pressure information may cause the tire to be underinflated, affecting vehicle handling, and increasing the risk of a crash.

The remedy

Forest River will notify the owner, and a dealer will replace the affected labels, free of charge. The recall began on October 18, 2017. Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-574-848-1335. Forest River's number for this recall is 24-0530.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
