Forest River is recalling 32 model year 2019 Coachmen Viking recreational trailers, models T17BHS and T17FQS.
The federal placard states that the tires have an inflation pressure of 65 PSI, when they actually require 75 PSI.
The incorrect placard could cause operators to underinflate the tires, possibly causing tire failure, increasing the risk of a crash.
What to do
Forest River has notified owners and provided a corrected Federal Placard, free of charge.
The recall began May 31, 2018.
Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-269-467-8281. Forest River's number for this recall is 121-0734.
