Manufacturer remedy
LCI will notify owners, and Forest River dealers will replace the two piece driveshaft with a three piece driveshaft, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin March 2018. Owners may contact LCI customer service at 1-574-538-4514. LCI's number for this recall is 2018-001-59.
