The defect
Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2020 Catalina Travel Trailers. The fasteners securing the upper sleeping bunks may be too short, which can allow the bunk to fall.
The risk
If the upper bunk collapses with an occupant in the top or bottom bunk it can increase risk of an injury.
