Forest River, Inc. · Filed August 17, 2018
Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2019 Coachmen Freedom Express recreational trailers. The break-away safety switch was not wired to a constant power source, and, as a result, the switch may be inadvertently disconnected from the trailer house battery and cause the brakes to not engage if the trailer detaches from the tow vehicle.
What can happen. If the trailer brakes cannot engage if the trailer detaches from tow vehicle, there would be an increased risk of a crash.
