2015–2017 Prime Time Crusader recall: equipment

⚠️ What's wrong

Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain model year 2015-2017 Prime Time Crusader trailers, model CSF370BHQ, manufactured August 26, 2014, to March 3, 2016. The Federal Placard on the affected trailers incorrectly indicates the Cargo Carrying Capacity (CCC) as 800-900 pounds, when the correct CCC is 2700 to 2800 pounds. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification."

The vehicle operator does not have accurate information regarding the vehicle's Cargo Carrying Capacity as currently indicated on the Federal Placard.

🔧 The fix

Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
