NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2026 Impression fifth wheel recreational trailers. The insulation on the wires may have been improperly removed, exposing conductors.

The risk

Exposed conductors may cause electrical arcing, increasing the risk of a fire.

The remedy

Dealers will inspect and correct the wiring as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed March 17, 2026. Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-574-327-2716. Forest River's number for this recall is 83-2039.

A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
