What's wrong?
The optional E-Track Cargo Tie Down system on 2024-2025 Forest River Rockport work trucks is the rail system used to secure cargo inside the box. It is supposed to stay fixed to the vehicle body so straps and tiedown fittings have a solid anchor point while the truck is loaded or moving.
On the recalled trucks, Forest River says the E-Track system was installed with the wrong fasteners. The plant used steel screws where steel pop rivets were needed. A pop rivet clamps through the mounting surface and holds the track tighter than the screws used in the recalled installation. With the wrong hardware, the track is not secured as intended.
The warning sign is the E-Track Cargo Tie Down System starting to come loose from the vehicle. If the rail or its mounting points move, separate, or no longer sit tight against the body, that is the condition Forest River identified before failure.

What's the safety risk?
If the E-Track Cargo Tie Down System starts coming loose, the fasteners can fail and the system can detach from the wall, increasing the risk of injury. Treat looseness as a reason to stop using the tie-down system and schedule the recall repair soon. Repair is free at any franchised Forest River dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2024-2025 Forest River Rockport is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Forest River dealer to schedule the free fastener repair that keeps the optional E-Track Cargo Tie Down system attached to the wall.
- Bring the recall notice if Forest River mailed one. If not, reference recall number 25V069 when you call.
- Avoid using the E-Track Cargo Tie Down system until the correct fasteners are installed.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Forest River technician installs the correct fasteners for the optional E-Track Cargo Tie Down system. The recall repair is free, and the service visit confirms that the correct parts and procedures were used. If you already paid for a repair tied to this defect, Forest River says refunds are available only for repairs within the scope of the recall. Submit the service invoice to Rockport at the address listed in the recall notice.

Frequently asked questions
What is recall 25V069?
Recall 25V069 covers 156 2024-2025 Forest River Rockport work trucks with optional E-Track Cargo Tie Down system fasteners that were not correct for the installation. The fasteners can fail, let the system detach from the wall, and increase the risk of injury.
What should I do if my 2024-2025 Forest River Rockport is on this recall?
Check your VIN to confirm your specific truck is included in recall 25V069. If it is, contact a franchised Forest River dealer to schedule installation of the correct E-Track Cargo Tie Down system fasteners. Reference Forest River recall number 65-1894 when you call.
Is the recall repair free?
Yes. Federal recall law requires the recall repair at no cost, and Forest River's remedy says dealers will install the correct fasteners free of charge. Parts and labor are covered at a franchised Forest River dealer.
What is the safety risk?
The safety risk is injury from the cargo tie-down system detaching from the wall. Forest River reported that the incorrect fasteners can fail, which lets the optional E-Track Cargo Tie Down system separate instead of staying secured during use.
What if I bought my Forest River Rockport used?
The free recall repair still applies. Recall coverage follows the vehicle, not the first owner. Check your VIN to confirm whether your Rockport is included, then call a franchised Forest River dealer or Forest River customer service at 1-574-522-7599.
