Forest River Recalls 2017-2018 Dynamax RVs for Carbon Monoxide Risk
Forest River is recalling 2017-2018 Dynamax recreational vehicles because carbon monoxide may enter the cabin if the engine runs while parked.
What this means for you
Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 4/5 (Severe).
The hazard poses a serious risk of illness, injury, or structural failure. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.
Our severity reasoning: The source text explicitly states that carbon monoxide exposure can increase the risk of injury or death, which aligns with the rubric criterion for 'significant injury/property-damage reports' or high-risk hazards warranting a Severe classification.
Plain-English summary
Forest River, Inc. is recalling certain 2017-2018 Dynamax recreational vehicles, specifically models ISC24FWM, ISC24RWM, ISC24FWMCD, and ISC24CBM. The recall involves 583 vehicles.
The defect involves the exhaust system. If the vehicle is parked with the engine running, carbon monoxide may enter the passenger cabin through open windows or other openings in the floor. This exposure can increase the risk of injury or death.
Forest River will notify owners, and dealers will install stainless steel exhaust tips to lengthen the exhaust, free of charge. The recall campaign began on December 14, 2017. Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-574-262-3474 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
