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.

Plain-English summary
Forest River, Inc. is recalling certain 2018 Stealth Evo recreational trailers, model SJT2850-CA. The recall addresses a defect where the Federal Placard on these vehicles indicates a tire size of ST205/75R15 Load Range E, while the tires actually installed on the vehicle are ST225/75R15 Load Range E. Consequently, these vehicles fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims," and 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification."
The incorrect tire information on the placard poses a safety risk because owners may install incorrect replacement tires based on the wrong data. This can result in premature tire wear or failure, which increases the risk of a crash.
Forest River has notified owners, and dealers will install a corrected federal placard with the correct tire and rim information free of charge. The recall began on March 15, 2018. Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-909-873-3777 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
