The problem
Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2018-2019 Starcraft All Star XL vehicles equipped with diesel engines with fuel module option number FS90301 or FS90453. The electric fuel heater within the fuel module may overheat and cause plastic in the fuel heater to melt and potentially catch fire. It may also lead to engine stalling.
The risk
A fire increases the risk of injury. An engine stall can increase the risk of a crash.
The fix
Forest River will notify owners, and dealers will replace the fuse to a 30A fuse, reverse the polarity of the wiring to the fuel heater, install a new fuel heater, and add a white dot on the fuel heater connector, free of charge.. The recall began August 28, 2019. Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-800-348-7440 or Cummins customer service at 1-800-286-6467. Forest River's number for this recall is 05-1021.
