Summary:
Forest River, Inc. "Forest River" is recalling certain 2019 Forest River Wildwood and Salem recreational trailers. The break-away safety switch may have been improperly wired such that it is not connected to a constant power source, thereby possibly preventing the trailer brakes from automatically applying if the trailer were to separate from the tow vehicle. |
||
|
Consequence:
If the trailer does not brake when it becomes detached from the tow vehicle, it can increase the risk of a crash. |
||
|
Remedy:
Forest River will notify owners, and dealers will install a new wiring harness, free of charge. The recall began on July 25, 2018. Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-574-534-4058. Forest River's number for this recall is 69-0764. |
