The federal placard may not list the correct tire pressure information

PhotoForest River is recalling 60 model year 2018 Prime Time Tracer recreational trailers. The federal mlacard on the vehicles may not list the correct tire pressure information of 65 PSI and 448 kPa.

As such, the vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims," and the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification."

Following the incorrect tire pressure information can cause the tires to fail prematurely, causing a loss of vehicle control and increasing the risk of a crash.

What to do

Forest River will notify owners, and dealers will provide corrected federal placards, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin October 27, 2017.

Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-574-862-1025. Forest River's number for this recall is 48-0514.
