2017 FOREST RIVER XLR TOYHAULER
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Forest River, Inc. is recalling certain 2017 XLR recreational trailers (models XLF413AMP, XLF422AMP, WZXLF422AMP, and XLF380AMP manufactured between September 29, 2016, and November 8, 2016) because the Federal Placard may be missing correct axle information. If the placard does not show that the vehicle has a third axle, an operator could overload the trailer, which may cause loss of vehicle control and increase the risk of a crash.
Forest River will notify owners, and dealers will install a corrected Federal Placard at no charge. Owners of affected trailers should contact Forest River customer service at 1-574-642-0432 and reference recall number 45-11122016-0272 to arrange for the free installation of the corrected placard.
