ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INTEGRATED TRAILER BRAKE CONTROL
- The defect
- Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2026 Flagstaff and Rockwood recreational trailers. The breakaway switch was wired to the incorrect side of the battery disconnect switch, making the breakaway switch inoperative.
- What it can cause
- An inoperative breakaway switch increases the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will rewire the breakaway switch, free of charge. All vehicles are located on dealer lots. Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-574-642-8942. Forest River's number for this recall is 10-1966.
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 7 vehicles this is a small campaign: 94% 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, 2026, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2025, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Forest River vehicles have been recalled over the electrical system 47 times before this, most recently in May 2025 as 25V287000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry one other recall published here: 25V681000 (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 August 22, 2025 as campaign 25V538000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
