The problem
Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2017 Rockwood and Flagstaff recreational trailers. The slide room mounting bracket on these vehicles may contact the driver side front tire, potentially damaging it and causing tire deflation.
The risk
Tire deflation can increase the risk of a crash.
The fix
Forest River will notify owners, and dealers will install a rearward offset mounting bracket head to keep the slide room bracket from touching the tire, free of charge. The recall began on April 12, 2017. Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-574-642-2640. Forest River's number for this recall is 10-02152017-0328.
