2019 FOREST RIVER CHEROKEE

  • Brand FOREST RIVER

Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.

What happened

Forest River, Inc. is recalling certain 2019 Cherokee recreational trailers because the Federal Placards on these vehicles display incorrect tire size information. The placards indicate ST205/75R15 tires when the trailers are actually equipped with ST225/75R15 tires. This incorrect information could cause an operator to install an insufficient tire on the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

Forest River has notified owners and is sending them a new Federal Placard with correct tire size information at no cost. Affected consumers should contact Forest River customer service at 1-541-644-8072, extension 4022, to receive the replacement placard and reference recall number 64-0948.
