Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Forest River, Inc. is recalling approximately 864 of its 2024-2025 Clipper and Viking travel trailers due to a manufacturing defect. The welds on the bottle bracket, which holds the propane tank in place, may break and allow the tank to fall off the vehicle while in motion. Owners should contact a Forest River dealer to schedule a free inspection and bracket replacement.

Risk

A detached propane tank can become a significant road hazard for other drivers and increases the immediate risk of a vehicle crash. If the tank detaches while the vehicle is in motion, it may also rupture, creating a secondary risk of fire or explosion.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your travel trailer's registration or purchase documents to confirm if you own a 2024-2025 Forest River Clipper or Viking model.
  2. Inspect the propane tank mounting area for any visible cracks or broken welds on the bottle bracket, but do not attempt to repair the welds yourself.
  3. Contact Forest River customer service at 1-269-467-8283 and reference recall number 121-1874 to locate an authorized dealer for a repair.
  4. Dealers will inspect and replace the bottle bracket as necessary, free of charge.
  5. For additional information, contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or visit www.nhtsa.gov.
