What's wrong, in plain English: Wiring, modules, batteries. Short circuits can cause stalls or fires. Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2023-2024 Sandstorm, Stealth, and 2024 Shockwave travel trailers. The wire routed from the 50AMP inlet to the transfer switch in the distribution panel is the incorrect gauge, which may cause the wire to melt.
What could happen: A melted wire may cause a short circuit, increasing the risk of a fire.
The fix: Dealers will replace the incorrect 10-gauge wire with a 6-gauge wire, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed November 20, 2023. Owners may contact Forest River Customer Service at 1-951-357-2327. Forest River's number for this recall is 67-1700.
