Forest River, Inc. is recalling 262 travel trailers from the 2023 model year, including Salem, Stealth EVO, and Wildwood models. The 8-gauge wire connected to the 12-volt refrigerator was manufactured without over-current protection, which can lead to the wire melting. Owners can take their trailer to a dealer to have a 20-amp mini-breaker installed for free to fix the issue.
The lack of protection on the refrigerator wiring can cause the wire to melt and create an electrical short, which significantly increases the risk of a fire.
Dealers will install a 20-amp mini-breaker for the refrigerator wiring.
If you or a family member were harmed by this recalled product, you may have legal rights. Consider consulting a consumer protection attorney to understand your options for compensation.
