Forest River, Inc. "Forest River" is recalling certain 2018 Surveyor recreational trailers, models SVT248BHLE and SVT248BHLE-OR. The refrigerator in the slideroom may have been installed without an air cycling fan to cool the refrigerator parts, which can cause the refrigerator cooling tubes to fail.
If the refrigerator overheats, the cooling tubes may fail, increasing the risk of a fire.
Forest River will notify owners, and dealers will install a fan assembly, free of charge. The recall began on April 9, 2018. Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-573-642-3119. Forest River's number for this recall is 3747-0667.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 'TTY 1-800-424-9153', or go to www.safercar.gov.
