Transport Canada Recall - 2018438

Product: RV Trailer

Brand: FOREST RIVER

What to do

Dealers will install a new wiring harness which supplies constant power to the break-away safety switch.

Description

On certain travel trailers, the trailer break-away safety switch may not be properly wired. When the battery disconnect is switched off, the electrical power to the switch could be lost. In the unlikely event that the trailer separates from the tow vehicle, the trailer brakes may not apply, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property.
