The defect
Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain model year 2016 Coachmen Cross Country vehicles manufactured May 26, 2015, to December 2, 2015. During suspension travel, the front tires may be damaged from contacting the fuel fill guard.
The risk
If the tire contacts the fuel fill guard, it may be damaged and deflate, resulting in a loss of vehicle control and increasing the risk of a crash.
The remedy
Forest River will notify owners, and dealers will install a revised fuel fill guard that will not contact the tires. Any tire that shows sign of contact with the fuel fill guard will be replaced. These repairs will be performed free of charge. The recall is expected to begin March 10, 2016. Owners east of the Mississippi river may contact Forest River customer service at 1-574-825-8317.
