Forest River spindle nut on the axles may not have been torqued to the proper specifications.
The short version
Forest River, Inc. reported a problem with the axle spindle. Here is what owners need to know.
The spindle nut on the axles may not have been torqued to the proper specifications.
The overtightened nut may cause the hub bearings to fail and the tire and rim to separate from the axle resulting in a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.
Forest River will notify owners, and Dexter axle dealers will inspect and replace any suspect bearings, hubs, and spindle nuts, free of charge.
