The problem
Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2020-2021 Shasta Phoenix, Coachmen Brookstone, and 2019-2022 Coachmen Chaparral, and Chaparral Lite fifth wheels. The floating cross-member may not be installed correctly and fail to retain the holding tanks, causing the holding tanks to become dislodged.
The risk
A tank that becomes dislodged during transit increases the risk of a crash.
The fix
Dealers will inspect and relocate the cross-member as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed November 29, 2022. Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-574-825-7101. Forest River's number for this recall is 110-1561.
