Summary:
Forest River, Inc. "Forest River" is recalling certain 2018 Forest River Dynamax, Forester, Sunseeker, and Coachmen Prism vehicles built on Mercedes-Benz Sprinter vans.

|
Consequence:
Operating the vehicle with low front tire pressures may result in tire damage, increasing the risk of a crash. |
