- The defect
- Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2027 Surveyor recreational trailers. The exterior receptacle may not be wired to a GFCI circuit.
- What it can cause
- An outlet without GFCI protection may fail to shut off electrical power when a ground-fault occurs, increasing the risk of injury.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will rewire the exterior outlet, free of charge. Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-574-642-3119. Forest River's number for this recall is 37-2103.
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 5 vehicles this is a small campaign: 95% of the 19,872 vehicle recalls with a published size filed from 1995 up to this one are as large or larger. The middle campaign among them covers 472. It covers one model year, 2027, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2026, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Forest River vehicles have been recalled over the equipment 216 times before this, most recently in September 2026 as 26V586000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry one other recall published here: 26V476000 (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 October 5, 2026 as campaign 26V647000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
