Recall 20V-544: 2021 Coachmen Catalina
Forest River, Inc. recall for equipment, reported to NHTSA on Sep 8, 2020, covering about 8 vehicles.
The problem
Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2021 Coachmen Catalina CAT261BHS-8 and CAT263BHSCKLE recreational trailers. The exterior griddle was built with a six foot hose, allowing the griddle to be stowed in the vehicle with an open flame.
The risk
Storing the griddle while it has an open flame can increase the risk of a vehicle fire.
The fix
None of the vehicles have been retailed yet. Forest River dealers will install a three foot LPG hose instead of the six foot one, free of charge. Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-574-825-4995. Forest River's number for this recall is 103-1227.
