- The defect
- Forest River, Inc (Forest River) is recalling certain 2024-2025 Clipper and Viking travel trailers. Please see the recall report for a complete list of models. The bottle bracket welds may break and cause the propane tank to detach from the vehicle.
- What it can cause
- A detached propane tank may become a road hazard and increase the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will inspect and replace the bottle bracket as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed January 2, 2025. Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-269-467-8283. Forest River's number for this recall is 121-1874.
- 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 864 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 57% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2024 to 2025, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2024, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Forest River vehicles have been recalled over the equipment 192 times before this, most recently in November 2024 as 24V884000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 3 other recalls published here: 24V884000 (equipment), 24V722000 (exterior lighting), 24V721000 (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 December 6, 2024 as campaign 24V912000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
