The problem
Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2020 Vengeance VGF311A13-WS-73 trailers. The Federal Placard has the incorrect axle rating, tire/wheel size, and tire PSI. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 120, "Wheels and rims-other than passenger cars" and Part 567, "Certification."
The risk
The incorrect Federal Placard may result in the operator unknowingly overloading the vehicle, increasing the risk of a loss of control, and the risk of a crash.

Forest River will notify owners, and dealers will provide replacement placards that contain the accurate information, free of charge. The recall began January 30, 2020. Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-260-499-2100. Forest River's number for this recall is 73-1131.
