What's wrong
Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2021-2022 Forest River Berkshire motorhomes. An incorrect circuit breaker was installed in the vehicle's house distribution subpanel, which prohibits the internal spring retention mechanism from properly contacting the subpanel.
The risk
Improper contact of the internal spring retention mechanism can cause excessive heat, increasing the risk of a fire.
The fix
Dealers will install the correct breaker, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed July 1, 2022. Owners may contact Forest River Customer Service at 1-574-522-1368. Forest River's number for this recall is 40-1516.
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.nhtsa.gov.
