2023 East TO West Della Terra & 2023 East TO West Silver Lake recall: equipment
⚠️ What's wrong
Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2023 East to West Della Terra, and Silver Lake travel trailers. The drawbar assembly containing the A-frame and safety chains, may be insufficient for the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) and could potentially break.
💥 The risk
Broken safety chains can allow the trailer to detach from the tow vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will replace the drawbar assembly, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 6, 2023. Owners may contact Forest River Customer Service at 1-574-264-6664. Forest River's number for this recall is 508-1617.
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.)
