Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2021 Cardinal CAF345RLX, CAF366DVLE, CAF390BX and 2021 Wildcat WCF336RLS, WCF368MB trailers. The furnace flue may become misaligned due to insufficient furnace hold screws that allow movement during travel.
A misaligned furnace flue can allow furnace exhaust to leak into the living space, increasing the risk of injury or death.
Remedy
Forest River will notify owners, and dealers will secure the furnace and align the flue, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin April 14, 2021. Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-574-296-7700. Forest River’s number for this recall is 15-1302.

Furnace in my 2020 Coachmen Clipper Cadet 17CFQ was not screwed down at all. Discovered this on my own when it started to rattle the first time I fired it up.
