Summary:
Forest River, Inc. "Forest River" is recalling certain 2016-2018 Cardinal recreational trailers, model CAF3250RL. The Federal Placard on these vehicles overstates the Gross Axle Weight Rating capacity "GAWR" by 840lbs. for each axle. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification." |
||
|
Consequence:
The incorrect GAWR makes the Cargo Carrying Capacity "CCC" label incorrect and may result in the vehicle being overloaded, affecting the vehicle control and increasing the risk of a crash. |
||
|
Remedy:
Forest River will notify owners, and dealers will provide a new Federal Placard with the correct GAWR and a new CCC label, free of charge. The recall began on June 6, 2017. Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-574-206-7600. Forest River's number for this recall is 15-05192017-0412. |
