Reported: 2024-06-03 (June 3, 2024)
Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2024 Puma travel trailers. The amber side marker light may not have been installed on one side of the vehicle.

Consequence: Missing side marker lights can reduce visibility of the trailer to other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Dealers will install intermediate amber clearance lights, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 19, 2024. Owners may contact customer service at 1-574-642-0488. Forest River's number for this recall is 425-1787.
