Defect

Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2024 Coachmen Catalina BCAT154RDX and Forest River Aurora BART15RDX travel trailers. The panel that isolates the cooktop from the furnace was not properly sealed during manufacturing, which could result in an inverted cooktop flame.

A inverted cooktop flame increases the risk of a fire.

Remedy

Dealers will seal the furnace from the cooktop, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed May 1, 2024. Owners may contact Forest River Customer Service at 1-574-825-4995. Forest River's number for this recall is 203-1766.
