Suspension: rear: axle: non-powered axle assemblyReported September 13, 2018 · 935 vehicles affected
What is wrong
Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2019 Coachmen Catalina and Apex travel trailers and Forest River Shasta, Wildwood, Salem, Vibe, Sierra, Sandpiper, XLR and Prime Time travel trailers. The axles may be missing inner bearing races on the hubs, which can cause the bearing to burnout or cause the hub to overheat.
Risk
The missing bearing race may cause premature hub bearing failure, possibly resulting in a separation of the hub from the axle, thereby increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy
Forest River will notify owners, and dealers will replace the defective hubs with new hubs or replace the axles, free of charge. The recall began October 9, 2018. For customer service, Catalina owners may contact Coachmen at 1‑574‑825‑8657, Apex owners should call 1‑574‑358‑0401, Shasta owners: 1‑574‑825‑8717, Wildwood and Salem owners: 1‑574‑534‑3167, Vibe owners: 1‑574‑296‑2084, Sierra and Sandpiper owners: 1‑574‑534‑4574, XLR owners: 1‑574‑642‑0432, Prime Time owners: 1‑574‑862‑1025.
