These vehicles contain incorrect tire inflation pressures on the Vehicle Certification Label. Thus, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 567, "Certification."

Safety consequence

The incorrect tire pressure information given on the Federal Certification Tag and Tire Information Tag may lead to the tire being overinflated, resulting in sudden tire failure, increasing the risk of a crash.

Manufacturer remedy

Forest River will notify owners and will provide a corrected replacement label, free of charge. The recall began on November 25, 2013. Owners may contact Forest River at 1-574-534-3167.
