2017 Prime Time Crusader recalls
Recall 17V-141: Equipment
Problem: Forest River Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2017 Prime Time Manufacturing Crusader recreational trailers, model CSF338RSK. The Federal placard indicates that the trailers have axles that have a capacity of 7,000 lbs when their actual capacity is 6,000 lbs. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification."
Risk: Incorrect axle information on the placard can result in the trailer being overloaded, causing a loss of control and increasing the risk of a crash.
Fix: Forest River will notify owners and dealers will replace the Federal placard with a corrected placard, free of charge. The recall began on March 20, 2017. Owners may contact Forest River Customer Service at 1-574-862-1025. Forest River's number for the recall is 49-02242017-0331.

The Federal Placard on the affected trailers incorrectly indicates the Cargo Carrying Capacity (CCC) as 800-900 pounds, when the correct CCC is 2700 to 2800 pounds. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification."
Risk: The vehicle operator does not have accurate information regarding the vehicle's Cargo Carrying Capacity as currently indicated on the Federal Placard.
