## What is wrong

Forest River, Inc. \(Forest River\) is recalling certain 2015\-2018 Vibe, and 2016\-2018 Rainier recreational trailers.  The liquid propane \(LP\) line may have insufficient clearance above the axle shackle.


## What can happen

Without adequate clearance, the LP line may be damaged, resulting in a propane leak, increasing the risk of a fire.


## The remedy

Forest River will notify owners, and dealers will replace the LP line with a longer one, routing it away from the axle hangers, free of charge.  The recall began October 10, 2017.  Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1\-541\-644\-8063.  Forest River's number for this recall is 64\-0516.
