On certain travel trailers, the emergency trailer breakaway switch may not work properly when the pin is pulled. If the trailer separates from a tow vehicle, the trailer brakes would not self-apply.
Safety Risk:
If the trailer breakaway switch does not work properly, there could be an increased risk of a crash.
Corrective Actions:
Forest River will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their travel trailer to a dealer to replace the breakaway switch.
