Hi. We are the proud owners of a 2025 Salem ErasX. It’s lovely. We had to order it in May 2024 to get the 50 amp for the dual AC units but HEY! We were getting a brand new one so YAY! Except we ordered a 2024. We got a 2025 sight unseen. Had no idea we were getting the 2025. Were not told UNTIL...

I'm new to RV'ing and I recently found water wasn't working. I found that the cold weather appears to have busted my water filter. I realize in some other RV's the filter and other water connections are enclosed and thus they get some heat from inside, and another good practice is to keep cold...

I just purchased a 2024 Salem Villa in October. I just put it in storage for winter and noticed the roof line on the non-camping side slopes down and back up within a 4ft span. It dips down about 2" almost down to almost level with the sidewall. I attached pictures to try and show the problem...

Hello! I've lived full time in my 25RKS for approx. 4 months now, and have made all the upgrades i need except a tankless water heater, I was wondering if there was a certain kind i needed to get? Do i just measure the opening on the outside of my camper and find the measurements within the...

Hello, We just purchased a 2015 Salem Cruise Lite T231RKXL. We are new to the brand and haven't had a travel trailer for years. Are there any particular things we should look our for? There is no TV in it, but there are plugs and coax connectors on the wall behind the dinette. I assume at...

I've had an issue with where the factory placed one of the outside speakers on our TT since we bought it. On our model one speaker is directly behind the trailer door when it is open and effectively blocks the sounds from that speaker. The speakers are starting to go south now and I was thinking...

Hey everyone, newbie to this group. So i have a seasonal camp site and just upgraded my camper from a 2006 Sierra fifth wheel to a 2009 Salem (392RLDS). I'm just trying to figure out what system i have for my slide out. I know its hydraulic. I had an issue getting one of the two slides to move...

Hello Everyone, I am having issues with Salem/Forrest River with the 1 year warranty on my 2023 Salem 178bhsk. I bought to unit brand new and was told it has a 1 year warranty. I bought the camper in August 2023 and used it a few times with no issues, winterized it, and put it away. When i...

My slideout on our new 2024 Salem 22ERASX shutters and squels when bringing in or out. After the first time it scratched our floor and the side seal was pulled out of its mount and drawn inside. The slide seems to cog from side to side. It is the old style motor in the middle with two tracks and...

Hey, just joined the forum. I have a 2018 Salem263BHXL. The left side slide out won’t move. The right will go out a few inches so it’s stuck inside the camper. On the left motor (hard to get to) it has the lights that indicate a possible issue between the controller and motor. I have done the...

After our trip this past weekend when we got home I went to start emptying the camper like I always do. But I could not get the slide to fully extend out. The slide does move but it is like it is out of sync. The slide closest to me extends out and the opposite side starts and then stops...

Just purchased a 2024 Salem FSX 290RTKX and looking to install a removeable wheel chock in the garage space. Has anyone else done this on this unit and if so, what type did you use? I am considering running a piece of e-track and using the e-track specific chocks so I can move the wheel chock...

I have owned my Salem Cruise Lite 263BHXL for about 1 year. I’m looking to replace the custom king mattress. Any suggestions on good mattress companies to order from and how to instruct them on the dimensions for this custom mattress? My rig is in for repairs with the shop and I’m looking to...
