EQUIPMENT:RECREATIONAL VEHICLE/TRAILER
A trailer that contacts the road during transit increases the risk of a crash or injury.
7 safety recall campaigns, 19 owner complaints filed with NHTSA.
Complaints are reports from owners of this model year, not findings about any particular vehicle, and a model that sold in large numbers will collect more of them. They are counted here as filed; nothing is inferred from them.
A trailer that contacts the road during transit increases the risk of a crash or injury.
A poor electrical connection can increase the risk of a fire.
If the spare tire carrier and spare tire detach from the vehicle while in motion, it can become a road hazard and increase the risk of a crash.
A trailer that detaches from the tow vehicle can increase the risk of a crash.
The incorrectly connected wire may not have overcurrent protection, allowing the wire to melt, increasing the risk of fire.
Damaged distribution panel wiring can increase the risk of electrical shock or fire.
Two 2020 FOREST RIVER CHEROKEEs can have entirely different histories, and a recall campaign usually covers a build-date window rather than a whole model year — which a VIN does not encode, so only the door-jamb label settles it. Scanning the VIN adds the decode, the crash tests, the fuel economy and the complaints matched to that exact engine, trim and assembly plant.
