NHTSA recall 18V186000
Equipment · Forest River, Inc.
Details
What's wrong: Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2017-2018 Forest River Cherokee recreational trailers, models cckt16bf, cckt16bhs, cckt16fq, cckt16gr, cckt16grh, cckt17rp and cckt18to. These vehicles are equipped with norcold n306 MINI refrigerators that may have a loose or missing propane gas valve test port screw, allowing propane to leak out when the refrigerator is used in 'gas' mode.
Why it matters: A propane leak increases the risk of a fire.
The fix: Forest river will notify owners, and norcold dealers will install and tighten the gas valve port screw, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on April 19, 2018.
