Forest River recalls 2019-2020 Flagstaff and Cherokee Arctic Wolf trailers with MORyde Orbital or You Turn Rubber Pin Box Wedge Kits due to bolts that may cause pin box rotation, increasing crash risk. Owners should contact customer service for free bolt replacement.
The incorrect bolts may allow the rotating pin box to rotate in two places, increasing the risk of a crash.
Forest River is recalling certain 2019-2020 Flagstaff and Cherokee Arctic Wolf trailers that have MORyde Orbital or You Turn Rubber Pin Box Wedge Kits. The recall is because the trailer hitches might have bolts that are too short, which could cause the pin box to rotate and increase crash risk.
The trailer hitches may have bolts that are 1-3/4 inches long instead of the required 2 inches. This can cause the rotating pin box to move in two places, which increases the chance of a crash during normal use.
Owners of 2019-2020 Flagstaff and Cherokee Arctic Wolf recreational trailers with MORyde Orbital or You Turn Rubber Pin Box Wedge Kits are affected. Trailer owners who use the hitches without proper bolt installation are at higher risk.
Check if your trailer has a MORyde Orbital or You Turn Rubber Pin Box Wedge Kit. The recall applies to 2019-2020 Flagstaff and Cherokee Arctic Wolf models.
