## The problem

Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2018 Forest River Salem recreational trailers, model SMT282QBXL-OR.  The Federal Placards on these vehicles may incorrectly state the tire pressure as 54 PSI, however, the correct tire pressure is 65 PSI.  As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims."  These vehicles also fail to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification."

## The safety risk

Incorrect tire pressure information can cause the operator to under inflate the tires, increasing the risk of a crash.

## The remedy

Forest River has notified owners and provided a tire placard with the correct tire pressure information, free of charge.  The recall began April 13, 2018.  Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-503-831-5413.  Forest River's number for this recall is 22-0693.
