Forest River recall: Equipment
What is wrong
Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2020-2021 XLR Boost Toy Hauler recreational vehicles. The Federal Placard and Cargo Carrying Capacity (CCC) label may state a lower weight than the actual weight. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 120, "Wheels and Rims-Other Than Passenger Cars."
What could happen
An inaccurate weight on the Federal Placard can cause the vehicle to be overloaded, possibly causing damage to the tires and increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Forest River will notify owners and will provide a new Federal Placard and replace any damaged tires, free of charge. The recall began January 8, 2021. Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-574-642-0432. Forest River's number for this recall is 79-1257.
