Defect summary (official text)
Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2021 Salem Fifth Wheel, Salem Travel Trailer, Wildwood Fifth Wheel, and Wildwood Travel Trailer vehicles.

Consequence (official text)
Less reflective clearance lamps can affect how other drivers judge the length of the trailer, increasing the risk of a crash.
