# 17V-790 recall: Forest River Salem and Wildwood

These are official NHTSA recalls. A model year on a campaign is not proof a VIN is included. Owner reports are not included.

**Campaign:** 17V-790
**Manufacturer:** Forest River, Inc.
**Component:** EQUIPMENT:OTHER:LABELS
**Filed:** December 8, 2017
**NHTSA:** https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls?nhtsaId=17V790

## The problem

Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2018 Salem and Wildwood recreational trailers.  The Federal Placard on these vehicles incorrectly states that the trailers are equipped with ST215/75R15 Load Range D tires, however, the installed tires are size ST205/75R15 Load Range D.  As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims," and these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification."

## The safety risk

If the incorrect label causes the operator to install tires of the wrong size, vehicle handling may be affected, increasing the risk of a crash.

## The remedy

Forest River will notify owners and provide corrected Federal Placards, free of charge.  The recall began on December 18, 2017.  Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-574-848-1335.  Forest River's number for this recall is 05-0595.
