2021 Prime Time Tracer: Equipment recall
NHTSA campaign 22V586000 · 22 units potentially affected · filed Aug 5, 2022
What's wrong
Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2021 Prime Time Tracer TRT26KSS travel trailers. The tail light may be located too close to the water heater exhaust, which can cause the tail light lens to melt and the light to become inoperative.
Why it matters
A distorted or inoperative tail light may reduce vehicle visibility and confuse other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Dealers will install a flush mount tail light, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed August 26, 2022. Owners may contact Forest River's customer service at 1-574-862-1025. Forest River's number for this recall is 48-1541.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
