NHTSA recall 16V728000
Electrical System, Equipment · Forest River, Inc.
Details
What's wrong: Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain model year 2017 Flagstaff and Rockwood trailers equipped with two Air conditioners. There is may be excess slack in the wiring harness used in the air conditioner that contains a heating element.
Why it matters: If the wires are not tied back and properly secured away from the heating element, the wires may contact the heating element, melt and short, increasing the risk of a fire.
The fix: Forest river will notify owners, and dealers will install a remedy kit to constrain the wires, free of charge. The recall began on November 1, 2016.
