Keystone Rv Company
Safety Issue:
Keystone RV Company (Keystone) is recalling various 2003-2018 Crossroads, Dutchmen, and Keystone recreational trailers equipped with Kidde Plastic-Handle or Push Button 'Pindicator' Fire Extinguishers. A list of the affected trailer models is available at: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2017/RMISC-17V755-5127.pdf. These extinguishers may become clogged, preventing the extinguisher from discharging as expected or excessive force may be needed to activate the extinguisher. Additionally, in certain models, the nozzle may detach from the valve assembly with enough force that it could cause injury and also render the product inoperable.

Defect Description:
STRUCTURE:BODY
Potential Consequences:
I JUST BOUGHT A NEW 5TH WHEEL COUGAR TRAVEL TRAILER LAST MAY. THE WHOLE BOTTOM FRAME IS BENDING AND DEGRADING BECAUSE I SUSPECT IT WAS MADE WITH CHEAP CHINESE STEEL. THE MANUFACTURER REFUSES TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE ISSUE AND IS BLAMING IT ON HITTING THE CURB WHICH IS PHYSICALLY IMPOSSIBLE. OTHER PEOPLE ON-LINE COMPLAIN OF SIMILAR FRAME FAILURE. THE RV INDUSTRY IS NOT PROPERLY REGULATED AND A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE OF THIS FRAME COULD POTENTIALLY CAUSE DEATH AND INJURY. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN THAT THING AND I JUST PURCHASED IT. PLEASE INVESTIGATE IT. *BF *TR
