Recall 24V774000 · manufacturer campaign 70-1853

What's wrong

Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2023-2024 Riverstone Fifth Wheel trailers. The solar panels may have been incorrectly connected in parallel and instead of in series, causing the wiring to overheat and melt.

The risk

Melted wires increase the risk of a fire.

The fix

Dealers will inspect the wiring and replace the cable entry plate and solar controller as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed November 5, 2024. Owners may call Forest River Customer Service at (260) 593-2425. Forest River's number for this recall is 70-1853.

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 nhtsa.gov.

Vehicles covered by this recall

Whether a particular car is affected and still unrepaired depends on its VIN — a model year being listed does not mean every car of that year is included. Check any VIN free on CarLogs, or at nhtsa.gov/recalls.

Is this car's recall fixed?

Recall repairs are free at any franchised dealer, for the life of the vehicle. A CarLogs report shows the recall status for a specific VIN as reported by the manufacturer — whether it's open or repaired, and whether the fix is available yet.
