Equipment › Other › Labels

Summary: Forest River, Inc.

Consequence: If the trailer is loaded based on the incorrect GVWR, the hitch assembly would be overloaded which may result in hitch assembly failure, causing a loss of control and increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Forest River will notify owners and will send corrected Certification, Tire Information, and Cargo Carrying Capacity labels, free of charge. The recall began on March 25, 2015.
