05 The Aurora in this site’s records
Spec pages: 12 floorplans on the Forest River Aurora line page, for model years 2026–2027. Of those, 2026 falls inside the federal record above (2005 to 2026).
None of the 12 Aurora floorplans here has separate records for two model years, so this site measures no change between years for this line.
Owner documents from the maker: Forest River Owner's Manual.
What was queried: NHTSA’s recall lookup under COACHMEN AURORA and FOREST RIVER AURORA for model years 2006–2007, 2021 and 2025. The complete recall file added 5 of the 21 campaigns above, and every complaint count comes from the complete complaint file.
Counts of NHTSA records matched on NHTSA’s own model field; a complaint is one owner’s unverified report, and an empty year is an empty record, not a clean one (how this record is built). Check a trailer by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls before you buy.
