## What is wrong

Forest River, Inc. \(Forest River\) is recalling certain 2021\-2022 Coachmen Catalina and Forest River Aurora travel trailers.  The panel that isolates the cooktop from the furnace was not properly sealed during manufacturing, which could result in an inverted cooktop flame.

Dealers will seal the furnace from the cooktop, free of charge.  Owner notification letters were mailed February 1, 2022.  Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1\-574\-825\-8657.  Forest River's number for this recall is 203\-1454.  This recall is an expansion of recall 21V\-828.
