The short version

Forest River, Inc. reported a problem with the other labels. Here is what owners need to know.

WHAT

The affected vehicles, manufactured on a Ford 158" wheelbase chassis with a 5.4L V-8 engine, may have a Federal Certification label that lists an incorrect gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR), gross axle weight rating (GAWR) and wrong cargo carrying capacity information. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification."

WHY IT MATTERS

With incorrect GVWR, GAWR, and cargo carrying capacity information, the operator may overload the trailer, increasing the risk of a crash.

WHAT TO DO

Forest River will notify owners and will provide replacement labels with the corrected information, free of charge.
