Notice (English)

Issue: On certain travel trailers, the U-bolts used to hold the spare tire carrier to the travel trailer may break. This could cause the tire and carrier to separate from the trailer. Safety Risk: A spare tire carrier that falls from the trailer could become a hazard for other road users and bystanders. This could create a risk of injury and/or a crash. Corrective Actions: Forest River will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your travel trailer to a dealer to replace the defective U-bolts. Forest River advises that you should remove the spare tire until the recall repairs have been completed.

Avis (français)

Problème : Sur certaines caravanes classiques, les boulons en U servant à maintenir le support de la roue de secours pourraient se rompre, ce qui pourrait entraîner la séparation du pneu et de son support de la caravane. Risques pour la sécurité : Un support de pneu de secours qui se détache de la caravane pourrait devenir un danger pour les autres usagers de la route et les passants. Cela pourrait créer un risque de blessure et/ou de collision. Mesures correctives : Forest River doit aviser les propriétaires par la poste et leur demander d'apporter leur remorque de voyage chez un concessionnaire pour faire remplacer les boulons en U défectueux. Forest River recommande de retirer le porte-roue de secours jusqu'à ce que les réparations dans le cadre du présent rappel aient été effectuées.
