Summary:
Forest River Inc. "Forest River" is recalling certain 2017 Prime Time Manufacturing Crusader recreational trailers, model CSF338RSK. The Federal placard indicates that the trailers have axles that have a capacity of 7,000 lbs when their actual capacity is 6,000 lbs. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification." |
||
|
Consequence:
Incorrect axle information on the placard can result in the trailer being overloaded, causing a loss of control and increasing the risk of a crash. |
||
|
Remedy:
Forest River will notify owners and dealers will replace the Federal placard with a corrected placard, free of charge. The recall began on March 20, 2017. Owners may contact Forest River Customer Service at 1-574-862-1025. Forest River's number for the recall is 49-02242017-0331. |
