What's wrong?
The leaf spring pack on 2025-2026 Forest River Entourage vehicles is part of the suspension. It supports vehicle weight and helps control up-and-down movement as the vehicle travels over bumps. A rebound clip helps keep the leaf spring pack together as the suspension moves.
In NHTSA campaign 25V662, the problem is a manufacturing error near that spring pack. A bolt sits close enough to the truss support that the bolt head can repeatedly strike it during suspension movement. That contact can damage the bolt or allow it to fail, which lets the rebound clip detach from the leaf spring.
The repair changes the clearance around the leaf spring pack. The dealer removes part of the truss support area and installs the bolt with a spacer tube so the spring rebound clip has room to move.
There is no warning sign before failure. The concern was found after a missing rebound clip bolt and impact marks were seen in photos.

What's the safety risk?

What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2025-2026 Forest River Entourage is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Forest River dealer to schedule the free truss-tube clearance repair that keeps the bolt from contacting the truss support and helps keep the rebound clip attached to the leaf spring.
- Give the dealer recall number 25V662 and Forest River recall 210-1982 when you schedule.
- Bring the owner letter if you have it, but schedule the repair even without the letter once your VIN is included.
- Avoid unnecessary trips until the repair is complete, because clip detachment can reduce stability.

At the dealer, a Forest River technician removes part of the truss tube to increase clearance between the bolt and truss support.
