Problem Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2026 Flagstaff, and Rockwood recreational trailers. The waste water holding tank ventilation pipe may not be terminated outside the vehicle, which can lead to sewer gas entering the vehicle. Risk Sewer gas that enters the vehicle increases the risk of injury. Fix Dealers will install a vent cap, free of charge. All vehicles are still in dealer inventory and therefore no owner notification letters will be mailed. Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-574-642-8942. Forest River's number for this recall is 10-1986.

Two numbers, one recall

Every safety recall carries two identifiers. 10-1986 is the number Forest River assigned in its own system: it is what appears on the owner letter, on the dealer’s service screen and on the repair order. 25V681000 is the number NHTSA filed the same recall under when the manufacturer reported it, and it is the one every federal record, this site included, is keyed on.

The repair is free by federal law for vehicles up to fifteen years old. Whether one particular vehicle is included is settled by its VIN against the manufacturer’s build list, not by its model year.

Check one specific vehicle

Both lookups check a VIN against the manufacturer’s own list and say whether the repair is still outstanding on that vehicle.
