What's wrong?

The step tread on a 2022 Prime Time Sanibel or Crusader is the flat surface you step on when moving through the fifth wheel trailer. It is supposed to stay clamped to the metal step brackets underneath it, so the tread holds steady when weight is placed on it.

On affected trailers, the tread was not secured tightly enough to those brackets. The original attachment can loosen and let the tread begin pulling away from the support. Once that happens, the step no longer has a solid connection to the bracket, and the tread can shift or detach during normal use.

There is no warning sign before failure. Owners should not rely on a rattle, visible gap, or loose feel to appear before the tread separates from the support.

A matching 2022 Prime Time Sanibel or Crusader does not guarantee inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific trailer is included.

What's the safety risk?

If a step tread separates from its bracket, a person using the entry steps can fall and be injured. There is no warning sign before the tread detaches, so avoid using damaged or loose steps and schedule the recall repair soon. Repair is free at any franchised Prime Time dealer.

What should I do?

  2. Contact your nearest franchised Prime Time dealer to schedule the free elevator-bolt repair that secures the step treads to the brackets.
  3. Bring the recall notice if Prime Time mailed one. If not, reference recall number 22V410 when you call.

What happens at the repair

At the dealer, a Prime Time technician installs an elevator bolt to properly secure the step tread to the step brackets. Parts and labor are covered under the recall, so the dealer repair is free. Forest River used its general reimbursement plan for this campaign. If you've already paid for a related step tread repair, bring receipts or repair documentation to the service desk and ask how to submit the claim under that plan.
