FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY:HOSES, LINES/PIPING, AND FITTINGS
- The defect
- Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2021-2023 Coachmen Galleria, Beyond, Forester, Sunseeker, and 2021-2024 Nova motorhomes, equipped with certain Cummins Onan QG 2800i, and Onan QG 2800i EVAP generator sets. The fuel hose between the inline fuel filter and the Injection Pump Module (IPM) may have inadequate clamp force, possibly resulting in a gasoline leak.
- What it can cause
- A gas leak in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire.
- What the dealer does
- Cummins Dealers will inspect and replace the fuel hose and clamps, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed May 17, 2023. Owners may contact Cummins at: (800) CUMMINS OR (800) 286-6467. Owners may contact Forest River Customer Service at 1-574-206-7600, or Coachmen Class B customer service at 1-574-825-8602. Forest River's number for this recall is 51-1626.

- 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.

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 1,027 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 59% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2021 to 2024, so the oldest vehicles on it were 2 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Forest River vehicles have been recalled over the fuel system, gasoline 2 times before this, most recently in October 2016 as 16V780000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 18 other recalls published here, the newest being: 24V771000 (equipment), 24V351000 (equipment), 24V326000 (structure), 24V040000 (structure).
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 21, 2023 as campaign 23V286000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
