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. 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.
