Why it was recalled

Insufficiently reflective side marker lights can reduce the trailer's visibility to other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.

What was recalled

Forest River, Inc. is recalling certain 2024-2025 Viking and Clipper travel trailers. The side marker lights may not reflect light as intended, which can make it difficult for other drivers to see the trailer. As such, these trailers fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."

What to do

Dealers will install reflector stickers to the lights, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed October 22, 2024. Owners may call Forest River Customer Service at 269-467-6604. Forest River's number for this recall is 121-1845.. Follow the official notice for full instructions.
