- The defect
- Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2020-2023 Palomino Solaire 320TSBH travel trailers. These vehicles may be missing the rearward and forward supports for the freshwater tank, which may cause the tank to become dislodged.
- What it can cause
- A dislodged tank may fall to the ground while in transit and become a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will install rearward and forward supports for the freshwater tank, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed March 21, 2023. Owners may contact Forest River Customer Service at 1-269-432-3271. Forest River's number for this recall is 400-1605.
- 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 272 vehicles this is a small campaign: 57% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published are as large or larger. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2020 to 2023, so the oldest vehicles on it were 3 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Palomino vehicles have been recalled over the equipment 10 times before this, most recently in June 2022 as 22V395000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry one other recall published here: 22V395000 (equipment).
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 March 3, 2023 as campaign 23V141000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
