NHTSA's note
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.

The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.

Which vehicles

A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup.

How this campaign compares

At 99,190 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 92% of the 15,809 vehicle recalls with a published size filed from 1995 up to this one. The middle campaign among them covers 481. It covers model years 2021 to 2023, so the oldest vehicles on it were one model year old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.

Forest River vehicles have been recalled over the equipment 160 times before this, most recently in March 2022 as 22V185000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.

This site holds the complaint record for 13 of the 74 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 163 complaints with NHTSA, 43 of them before this campaign was filed. 32 of those name the equipment, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect. The earliest of them reached NHTSA in June 2020, 1 year before this filing.

The vehicles on this campaign carry 59 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V704000 (electrical system), 26V020000 (equipment), 25V727000 (equipment), 25V682000 (electrical system).

Check your own car

A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.

Filed by Forest River, Inc. with NHTSA on April 13, 2022 as campaign 22V243000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
