- The defect
- Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2026 Riverstone, Cedar Creek, and 2024 R-Pod recreational trailers equipped with Curt Touring Coil Suspensions. The shock bolts may have been incorrectly tightened.
- What it can cause
- Broken shock retainer bolt heads and washers may detach and become a road hazard for other vehicles, increasing the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will replace the shock bolts, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed July 6, 2026. Owners may contact Cedar Creek customer service at 1-260-593-4000, R-Pod customer service at 1-574-642-3119, and Riverstone customer service at 1-260-593-4028. Forest River's number for this recall is 51-062.
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 200 vehicles this is a small campaign: 61% 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 model years 2024 to 2026, 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 suspension 29 times before this, most recently in October 2025 as 25V662000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 3 other recalls published here: 25V551000 (structure), 25V550000 (service brakes, hydraulic), 24V029000 (suspension).
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.
