Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2020-2021 Vengeance trailers, models VGF351A13-81, VGF371A13-81, VGF383V16-81 and VGF4007V-81. The fifth-wheel landing legs may not be seated properly with enough space between the brackets which are welded to the chassis, allowing the fifth wheel to slip down the landing leg and can puncture the floor of the vehicle.
The punctured floor can increase the risk of injury.
Forest River will notify owners, and dealers will correct the spacing of the landing leg installation to the chassis from 17 1/2" to 17 3/4". These repairs will be done free of charge. The recall began August 14, 2020. Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-260-499-2100. Forest River's number for this recall is 81-1180.

Suspension, May 26, 2022
Ground control 2.0 system will not lift my 17,500lbs fifth wheel toy-hauler. As this system will only lift 15,500lbs. I purchased a new landing gear leg as Forest River and Western Skies Rv would not replace as it was out of warranty which was a week prior.This is issue and needs to be taken care of. If these fifth wheel trailers are no equip with the proper lifting landing gear how are you suspost to use this 110,000.00 dollar RV?
