Transport Canada carries this recall as 2024564, dated 27 September 2024. The American register carries the same defect as campaign 24V721, dated 27 September 2024. They are the same defect because the manufacturer filed both under one internal campaign code, 1211844.

Both registers carry the same date for this defect.

These are the dates each register records against its own notice. They are separate administrative acts in two countries, recorded by two authorities under two sets of rules, and this page does not claim that one caused the other or that owners in either country were contacted on those days. What it shows is that the same manufacturer campaign reached the two registers on different dates.

Read the American notice 24V721, including every earlier version of its wording this site holds. The Canadian register explains why the manufacturer code is published there and what that makes possible. Canada and America sets every matched pair side by side.

Issue:
On certain RV trailers, the screws that attach the roof rack might not have been properly tightened. As a result, the roof rack could detach from the trailer while driving.

Safety Risk:
A roof rack that detaches from the trailer could create a road hazard for others and increase the risk of a crash.

Corrective Actions:
To reduce the safety risk, Forest River advises not to use the roof rack until the recall repairs have been completed. Forest River will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your trailer to a dealership to inspect and, if necessary, tighten the roof rack screws.

The wording above is the department's own, as it stood in the monthly file this site last read. Vehicle counts are the sum of the counts published for each make and model the recall covers. To act on a recall, use the official notice: Transport Canada recall 2024564.

Reading this against the source

This page is what Transport Canada published in the Vehicle Recalls Database, kept as it was read. The authority publishes only its current wording; if a notice is rewritten, the earlier version disappears there and is kept here. The whole register is at /canada, and how the reading is done is set out in the method.

What the words on this notice mean — the system it is filed under, and what the filing type says about who found the fault.

This register keeps an index of its own for every maker and every year it holds: Canadian recalls on a Forest River: 239 in the register, and 672 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2024.
