Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain model year 2015 Shasta Airflyte SAT16 and SAT19 recreational travel trailers manufactured September 15, 2014, to October 22, 2014.

Safety risk
If the operator overloads the trailer due to the incorrect information on the Certification label, the tires may fail suddenly, increasing the risk of a crash.
Manufacturer remedy
Forest River will notify owners, and dealers will install a corrected label, free of charge. The recall began on July 9, 2015. Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-574-825-8717. Forest River's number for this recall is 54-06052015-0047.
