    Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2017-2019 Shasta Revere SHT32FE recreational trailers. The liquid propane (LP) gas line may have been improperly installed through the wheel-well, allowing the gas line to be damaged by road debris kicked up by the tires.

    A damaged LP gas line may leak, increasing the risk of a fire.

    Forest River will notify owners, and dealers will re-reroute the LP gas line so that road debris cannot damage it, free of charge. The recall began June 19, 2019. Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-574-825-8717. Forest River's number for this recall is 53-0995.
