Issue

Issue:
Under certain conditions, the fifth wheel pin box could fail.
Note: This recall only affects trailers equipped with a turning point fifth wheel and a rear towing hitch.

Safety Risk:
A pin box that fails could cause the trailer to detach from the tow vehicle and increase the risk of a crash.

Corrective Actions:
Forest River will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to install warning labels on the trailer. Forest River advises that you should always set the fifth wheel pin box to the "Conventual Transport" position when using the rear towing hitch.
