Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Forest River, Inc. is recalling approximately 100 of its 2025-2026 Alta travel trailers because the Federal Placard label may list the wrong axle capacity. This error causes the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) and Cargo Carrying Capacity (CCC) to be miscalculated. To fix this, dealers will provide and install a new, corrected label free of charge.

Risk

If an owner relies on the incorrect weight information, the vehicle could be overloaded. Overloading a travel trailer increases the risk of a crash.
