What's wrong
Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain model year 2014 Vibe VCT6501, VCT6502, VCT6503, VCT6504, VCT6505 and VCT6506 travel trailers manufactured July 30, 2013, through April 4, 2014. The Federal Certification Label has incorrect tire and gross axle weight rating information listed. As such, the vehicles do not conform to Part 567, "Certification."
The risk
If the information printed on the label is incorrect, it may lead to the recreational vehicle being overloaded, resulting in tire failure which would increase the risk of a crash.
The fix
Forest River will notify owners and send them replacement Federal Certification and Tire Information labels with the correct information, free of charge. The recall began on June 9, 2014. Owners may contact Forest River Customer Service at 1-260-593-0023.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
Vehicles covered by this recall
Whether a particular car is affected and still unrepaired depends on its VIN — a model year being listed does not mean every car of that year is included. Check any VIN free on CarLogs, or at nhtsa.gov/recalls.
Is this car's recall fixed?
Recall repairs are free at any franchised dealer, for the life of the vehicle. A CarLogs report shows the recall status for a specific VIN as reported by the manufacturer — whether it's open or repaired, and whether the fix is available yet.
