Corrective Actions: Forest River will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your motorhome or RV trailer to a dealership to inspect and, if necessary, disable or remove the LED light rings.
- [2021122](/recalls/tc/2021122.md), 2021-03-08: Structure. Issue: On certain travel trailers, the spare tire carrier was not properly attached to the travel trailer.
