What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a risk-of-harm product (incorrect tire pressure labels leading to potential tire damage and crash risk) where no specific injuries or fatalities have been reported in the source text.

Plain-English summary

Forest River, Inc. is recalling certain 2018 Forest River Dynamax, Forester, Sunseeker, and Coachmen Prism vehicles built on Mercedes-Benz Sprinter vans. The affected vehicles have tire labels on the B-pillar that list a tire pressure that is too low. As a result, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification."

Operating the vehicle with low front tire pressures may result in tire damage, increasing the risk of a crash. The recall began on September 5, 2017.

Forest River will notify owners, and authorized Mercedes-Benz or Freightliner Sprinter dealers will inspect and replace the tire pressure label with the correct tire inflation pressure, free of charge. Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-854-888-3214 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
