2015 Shasta Airflyte Campaign 15V369000 12 Jun 2015

EQUIPMENT:OTHER:LABELS

Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain model year 2015 Shasta Airflyte SAT16 and SAT19 recreational travel trailers manufactured September 15, 2014, to October 22, 2014.

Remedy: Forest River will notify owners, and dealers will install a corrected label, free of charge. The recall began on July 9, 2015. Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-574-825-8717. Forest River's number for this recall is 54-06052015-0047.

Transport Canada runs its own recall programme. Its campaigns do not always mirror the American ones, so a Canadian owner reading a US-only list is reading about a different car than the one on their driveway.

Other

On certain travel trailers, the bonding material used to secure the rear egress window to their aluminum frames may fail. This could cause the window to separate from the frame and fall onto the road, creating a road hazard and increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the rear windows and inspect all the other windows for proper bonding, replacing them as required.

Wheels

Certain travel trailers may have been manufactured with the wrong axle, which could cause the inner sidewall of the tire make contact with the inside wall of the wheel well. Repeated tire contact could rupture the tire and damage the brake wiring to the axle, resulting in a loss vehicle control and/or brake control to the trailer. This could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the rear axle.
