Forest River recalls 2027 Surveyor trailers over outdoor outlet that may lack shock protection

The outdoor outlet on these trailers may not be wired to a GFCI circuit, so it might not shut off power during a ground fault, which raises the risk of injury.

What to do

Dealers will rewire the outdoor outlet for free. Owners can call Forest River customer service at 1-574-642-3119 and mention recall number 37-2103.
