2017–2019 Forest River Crossfit recall: equipment
⚠️ What's wrong
Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2017-2019 Coachment Crossfit vehicles. The Federal Placards on these vehicles incorrectly list a rear axle Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) that exceeds the GAWR assigned by the chassis manufacturer.
💥 The risk
The incorrect GAWR may cause the operator to overload the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

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.)
