Issue

Certain travel trailers may not comply with Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Regulations. The certification label does not contain the correct Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR). The label incorrectly indicates a GAWR of 1800 kg (3970 lbs), while it should instead show the GAWR as 1587 kg (3500 lbs). Correction: Forest River will send a revised certification label to current owners with instructions for proper placement. If owners are not comfortable installing the label themselves, they can take the label to a Forest River dealer for installation.
