05 The Salem & Wildwood in this site’s records

Spec pages: 12 floorplans on the Forest River Salem & Wildwood line page, for model year 2026. That year also falls inside the federal record above.

None of the 12 Salem & Wildwood 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 FOREST RIVER SALEM and FOREST RIVER WILDWOOD for model years 2005–2006, 2008 and 2010–2025. The complete recall file added 4 of the 64 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.
