Forest River, Inc. is recalling approximately 4,179 recreational vehicles from the 2024-2025 model years because the removable step assembly may detach. The mounting bolts on the clip-on bracket can come loose, causing the steps to fall off while they are being used. Affected models include various fifth wheel and travel trailers under the Coachmen Catalina and Forest River Aurora, Cascade, Cedar Creek, Cherokee, Sandpiper, Sierra, Campsite Reserve, Impression, Pause, Puma, Sabre, Salem, Vengeance, and Wildwood brands. Authorized dealers will inspect and repair or replace the clip-on bracket free of charge.
If the steps detach while a person is stepping on them, it significantly increases the risk of a fall and resulting injury.
