Transport Canada Recall - 2017188 - FOREST RIVER
Brand(s)
Summary
Please see corrective actions section below
Affected products
2017 | FOREST RIVER | SALEM
Issue
Certain travel trailers may not comply with Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Regulations. The certification label may not contain the correct Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR). The label incorrectly indicates a GAWR of 5,080 lbs (2,304 kg), while it should instead show the GAWR as 4,400 lbs (1,995 kg). This could lead to premature tire failure and vehicle overloading, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Forest River will send a revised certification label to current owners with instructions for proper placement.
