Forest River, Inc. is recalling 12 of its 2026 Spirit travel trailers because the safety chains installed may not be strong enough to handle the vehicle's weight rating. If these chains do not meet the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) listed on the trailer's placard, they can fail while the trailer is being towed. Dealers will replace the safety chains free of charge to ensure they are appropriate for the trailer's weight.
If the safety chains fail, the trailer could separate from the towing vehicle while in motion, which significantly increases the risk of a crash on the road.
Free replacement of the trailer safety chains.
Forest River internal recall number 220-1941.
