Forest River recalls some Salem and Wildwood trailers

Forest River has recalled certain 2019 Salem and Wildwood travel trailers. The power cord hatch is located above the water heater exhaust, possibly resulting in the cord or the hatch melting.

A melted cord may result in bare wiring, increasing the risk of fire.

Forest River has notified owners. Dealers will secure the power cord away from the water heater exhaust free of charge. The recall began February 4, 2019. To learn more, owners may contact Forest River customer service at 574-534-6127. Forest River’s number for this recall is 44-0929.

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153).
