Issue
On certain travel trailers, the certification tire and loading information placard does not contain correct tire size information. The labels incorrectly indicate a tire size as ST215/75R15/D, while the correct tire size should be ST205/75R15/D. This could result in the wrong tires being installed on the travel trailer, which would lead to poor towing/driving characteristics, and increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Forest River will mail a corrected certification label to current owners with instructions for proper placement. If owners are not comfortable installing the label themselves, they can take the label to a Forest River dealer for installation.
