Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2021 Wildcat Travel Trailer models WCT247RXX-OR and WCT276FKX-OR. The safety chains do not meet the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) and could potentially break.
Safety chain breakage could cause the trailer to detach from the tow vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash and injury.
