Filed Mar 6, 201711 vehiclesForest River, Inc.
Defect. Forest River Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2017 Prime Time Manufacturing Crusader recreational trailers, model CSF338RSK. The Federal placard indicates that the trailers have axles that have a capacity of 7,000 lbs when their actual capacity is 6,000 lbs. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification."
Risk. Incorrect axle information on the placard can result in the trailer being overloaded, causing a loss of control and increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy. Forest River will notify owners and dealers will replace the Federal placard with a corrected placard, free of charge. The recall began on March 20, 2017. Owners may contact Forest River Customer Service at 1-574-862-1025. Forest River's number for the recall is 49-02242017-0331.

ON 4/05/2017 OUR BRAND NEW NEVER USED FIFTH WHEEL MANUFACTURED BY PRIME TIME A DIVISION OF FOREST RIVER CAUGHT FIRE IN OUR DRIVEWAY . MY HUSBAND DIFFUSED THE FIRE BEFORE THE FIRE LIT FLAME TO THE ENTIRE RV. ALL OF THE ELECTRIC BRAKE WIRES AND WIRES NEARBY TO IT WERE COMPLETELY MELTED AND BURNT. THE RV WAS NOT PLUGGED INTO ANYTHING OR ANY VEHICLE , IT WAS STATIONARY AND NOT IN USE.
No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
