DEFECT #1 - TRAILER HITCHES
Posted on: 2017-12-08
Description
Travel lite rv (travel lite) is recalling certain 2018 falcon recreational trailers, models f-23th, and f-23rb. A 2 class iii hitch coupler was mistakenly installed instead of a 2 5/16 class iii hitch coupler.
Consequence
Because the coupler is under rated for the gross vehicle weight rating (gvwr) of the trailer, the trailer could become unhitched from the tow vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
Corrective Action
The remedy for this recall is still under development. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact travel lite customer service at 1-574-831-3000.

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.safercar.gov.
