Forest River federal placard incorrectly states that there are six seats equipped with seat belts when there are actually only four.
The short version
Forest River, Inc. reported a problem with the other labels. Here is what owners need to know.
The federal placard incorrectly states that there are six seats equipped with seat belts when there are actually only four. As such, these motorhomes fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 120, " Tire selection and rims and motor home/recreation vehicle trailer load carrying capacity information for motor vehicles with a GVWR of more than 4,536 kilograms (10,000 pounds)."
Vehicle occupants may be unaware of the accurate number of seat belts, resulting in unsecured passengers and increasing the risk of injury in a crash.
Forest River will provide a new federal placard, free of charge.
