- The defect
- Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2021-2025 Impression fifth wheel travel trailers. The solar charge line, front LED hitch light, and the pass-thru light may have been wired to the incorrect mini breaker.
- What it can cause
- Wires connected to the incorrect mini breaker could melt and short, increasing the risk of a fire.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will correct the wiring, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 3, 2024. Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-574-367-3314. Forest River's number for this recall is 83-1862.
- 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 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 2,898 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 69% 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 2025, so the oldest vehicles on it were 3 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Forest River vehicles have been recalled over the equipment 189 times before this, most recently in November 2024 as 24V823000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 6 other recalls published here, the newest being: 25V245000 (structure), 23V503000 (equipment), 22V667000 (structure), 22V556000 (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 November 8, 2024 as campaign 24V847000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
