What's wrong

The problem

KZRV, L.P. (KZRV) is recalling certain 2017-2018 KZRV Sportsmen Sportster trailers. There is insufficient clearance between the slide out support arm and the vehicle tires. While the trailer is being towed, the axle travel can allow the tire to contact the support arm.

The risk

Tire contact with the slide support arm adjustment bolt may damage the tire, increasing the risk of a crash.

What to do

The fix

KZRV will notify owners and dealers will modify the slide room support arm to provide the proper clearance, free of charge. The recall began on November 17, 2017. Owners may contact KZRV customer service at 1-800-768-4016 extensions 154 or 153. KZRV's number for this recall is KZ-2017-07.

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.
