- The defect
- Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain Coachmen Catalina BCAT154RBX travel trailers. The wastewater holding tank pipe may not extend to the exterior of the vehicle, allowing sewer gas to enter the cabin.
- What it can cause
- Sewer gas inside the cabin increases the risk of injury.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will extend the ventilation pipe, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 25, 2025. Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-574-825-4995. Forest River's number for this recall is 203-1917.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1- 888-275-9171), or go to www.safercar.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 27 vehicles this is a small campaign: 84% 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 one model year, 2025, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2025, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Coachmen vehicles have been recalled over the equipment 72 times before this, most recently in April 2025 as 25V212000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 6 other recalls published here, the newest being: 25V682000 (electrical system), 25V264000 (electrical system), 25V245000 (structure), 25V112000 (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 April 10, 2025 as campaign 25V230000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
