## What is wrong

Forest River, Inc. \(Forest River\) is recalling certain 2024 Sabre fifth wheels.  The Federal Placard indicates an incorrect cargo carrying capacity \(CCC\) and dry weight, which can result in an overloaded vehicle.  As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 120, "Wheels and Rims\-Other Than Passenger Cars" and 49 CFR Part 567 "Certification."


## What can happen

An overloaded vehicle can cause a loss of control, increasing the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

Dealers will mail owners a new Federal Placard, free of charge.  Owner notification letters were mailed October 12, 2023.  Owners may contact Forest River Customer Service at 1\-260\-499\-2100.  Forest River's number for this recall is 62\-1671.
