The following safety recalls were issued Monday by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA): 

  • Airstream is recalling certain 2024 Pottery Barn travel trailers. The rear axle weight on the Federal Certification label is incorrect. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims." An incorrect axle rating can lead to unintentionally overloading the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash. NHTSA says potentially 172 units are affected by the recall.
  • Daimler Trucks North America (DTNA) is recalling certain 2023-2024 Freightliner 108SD, 114SD, Business Class M2, Cascadia, 2024 Western Star 57X, and 2023 Freightliner 122SD vehicles. The steer axle wheel flanges may crack and cause damage to the tires. Damaged tires can cause a loss of vehicle control and increase the risk of a crash. NHTSA says potentially 29,092 units are affected by the recall.
  • Forest River Bus is recalling certain 2018-2024 Starcraft Allstar, Senator II, 2022-2024 Starcraft Allstar MVP, Senator II MVP, Eldorado National Advantage, 2018 Starcraft Candidate II, 2023 Starcraft Starlite, 2023-2034 Champion Challenger, Elkhart Coach ELKC, and 2019-2024 Glaval Universal transit buses. Unsecured brake lines may be damaged by contact with the frame rail. Damaged brake lines can cause loss of brake pressure, increasing the risk of a crash. NHTSA says potentially 3,680 units are affected by the recall.
  • Forest River is recalling certain 2024 Aurora and Coachmen Catalina Travel Trailers. Improper routing may leave the distribution panel wire unprotected from the battery. An unprotected wire increases the risk of a fire. NHTSA says potentially 1,552 units are affected by the recall.
