2026 Forest River Cedar Creek recall: body & structure

⚠️ What's wrong

Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2026 Cedar Creek recreational trailers. The trailers may not have an emergency exit window installed.

💥 The risk

A missing emergency exit window can prevent passengers from exiting in the event of an emergency, increasing the risk of injury.

🔧 The fix

Dealers will install red window operating hardware and an exit sticker for the window, 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 1-260-593-4000. Forest River's number for this recall is 20-1970.

Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
