2012 FOREST RIVER GEORGETOWN; 2010 FOREST RIVER GEORGETOWN; 2011 FOREST RIVER GEORGETOWN
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Forest River is recalling certain 2010-2012 Georgetown recreational vehicles built on Ford stripped chassis and manufactured between February 15, 2010, and November 29, 2011. The gear shifter's cable may break where it attaches to the transmission control selector arm assembly on the steering column. When this cable breaks, the gear indicator display on the instrument panel becomes inaccurate and remains stuck on the first gear position, regardless of which gear is actually selected.
This defect creates a safety hazard because an inaccurate gear indicator increases the risk that the vehicle will be left in gear, which could cause the vehicle to roll and result in a crash or injury to a bystander. Forest River will notify owners, and dealers will replace the transmission selector arm assembly and cable assembly at no charge. According to the recall record, owners should contact Forest River at 1-574-295-8749.
