The defect
Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2026 Dynamax Europa and Grand Sport GT motorhomes. The distribution panel may not be properly bonded to the chassis ground, allowing a conductor to energize the chassis.
The risk
An energized chassis increases the risk of injury and electrocution.
The remedy
Dealers will inspect and add a chassis bonding wire as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed April 14, 2026. Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-574-522-1368. Forest River's number for this recall is 40-2038.
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.
