Issue

Issue:
A small number of RV trailers may have been built with a hitch coupler rated for 6350 kg (14000 lb.), when it should have one that is rated for 9525 kg (21000 lb.). As a result, the hitch coupler could be overloaded and fail.

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

Corrective Actions:
None of the affected trailers have been delivered to customers. Forest River will instruct dealers to replace the hitch coupler before the trailers are delivered.
