Plain-English summary
Forest River, Inc. is recalling certain 2019 Rockwood and Flagstaff recreational trailers. The recall addresses a defect in the wiring for the front bedroom air conditioning unit, which may have been improperly installed. This installation error allows the wiring to come into contact with the heat strip inside the air conditioner.
If the wiring harness contacts the heat strip, the protective sheathing on the wires may melt. This condition increases the risk of a fire. The recall began on May 6, 2019.
Forest River will notify owners, and authorized dealers will secure the air conditioner wiring harness away from the heat strip at no charge. Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-574-642-8943. Forest River's number for this recall is 10C-1001.
