Critical riskHealth Canada

An official Health Canada notice concerns Forest river. Certain vehicles may fail to comply with the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 110 - Tire Selection and Rims. The certification label incorrectly states the tires and rims as ST205/75R15C Tires and 14X5 Rims. However, the label should state the tire size as ST205/75R14C, and the rim size as 14X5.5JJ. This could lead to the wrong tire and rim size being used, which could lead to poor vehicle handling characteristics and increase the risk of tire failure, which could result in a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Forest River provide a corrected certification label to current owners and dealers with instructions for proper placement. If owners are not comfortable installing the label themselves, they can take the label to a Forest River dealer for installation. Published 2017-03-20.
