## The problem

Forest River, Inc (Forest River) is recalling certain 2019 Forest River Salem and Wildwood recreational trailers.  The clearance lights on these vehicles may not work due to being incorrectly wired.

## The safety risk

Inoperative clearance lights can reduce the trailers visibility to others, increasing the risk of a crash.
