Summary

Forest River, Inc. "Forest River" is recalling certain 2018 Prime Time Fury recreational trailers. The information on the Federal Placard may be incorrect, stating that the vehicle is equipped with ST235/80R16E tires and 16X6.0JJ rims, however, the vehicle is actually equipped with ST225/75R15E tires and 15X6.0JJ rims. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard "FMVSS" number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims," and 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification."

Consequence

The placards do not indicate the correct tire/rim combination which could lead to the installation of incorrect replacement tires, potentially increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Forest River will notify owners, and dealers will install new corrected Federal Placards, free of charge. The recall began on December 8, 2017. Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-574-862-1025. Forest River's number for this recall is 48-0575.

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 'TTY 1-800-424-9153', or go to www.safercar.gov.
