Defect
Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2018 Forest River Salem recreational trailers, model SMT282QBXL-OR.

These vehicles also fail to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification."
Safety risk
Incorrect tire pressure information can cause the operator to under inflate the tires, increasing the risk of a crash.
