Details

What's wrong: Forest River, Inc. (forest) is recalling certain 2021 Berkshire bea40c-380, bea40e-380, bea45a-450, and bea45ca-450 motorhomes equipped with 3000w inverters. These inverters supply too much current to the 10 gauge romex wire.

Why it matters: Overloaded wires may increase the risk of a fire.

The fix: Forest river will notify owners, and dealers will replace the 3000w inverter with a 2800w inverter, free of charge. The recall began September 24, 2020.
