Forest River trailer recall: Upper bunk may collapse

Forest River, Inc. is recalling certain 2020 Catalina travel trailers. The fasteners securing the upper sleeping bunks may be too short, which can allow the bunk to fall.

If the upper bunk collapses with an occupant in the top or bottom bunk it can increase risk of an injury.

Forest River will notify owners, and dealers will replace the fasteners to secure the bunk, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin October 9, 2019. Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-574-825-8657.

Forest River’s number for this recall is 205-1079.

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