This report is rather unusual as I actually represent over a 1000 people currently with this problem/concern. We are group of a few thousand members who own Forest River Products in various trims models and sizes. What is similar on those products is Castle Rock ST tires. Those tires are extremely hazardous as they blow up without warning and they need to be recalled asap. We started a petition which has over 1000 signatures that wants this issue to be brought up to light. Here is a link to petition: https://chng.it/tHtrcwwJKD Please let us know what could be the next steps in hopefully removing this product from the Forest River products under a recall?
