Issue

On certain travel trailers, the certification tire and loading information placard does not contain correct tire inflation information. The labels incorrectly show the tire pressure as 110 PSI, while the correct tire pressure should be 95 PSI. Overinflated tires could cause uneven wear of the tire, premature tire failure, causing poor towing/driving characteristics, increasing 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.
