Forest River, Inc. "Forest River" is recalling certain 2015-2018 Vibe, and 2016-2018 Rainier recreational trailers. The liquid propane "LP" line may have insufficient clearance above the axle shackle.
Without adequate clearance, the LP line may be damaged, resulting in a propane leak, increasing the risk of a fire.
Forest River will notify owners, and dealers will replace the LP line with a longer one, routing it away from the axle hangers, free of charge. The recall began October 10, 2017. Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-541-644-8063. Forest River's number for this recall is 64-0516.
