NHTSA recall 17V755000 · Nov 22, 2017 · 1,205,997 vehicles
Problem: 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.

Jul 3, 2017 · 200 milesService brakes THE TRAILER HAD A SEVERED BRAKE WIRE, THE RESULT OF AN INSTALLATION ISSUE. THE WIRE WAS TOO LOOSE AND WAS ALLOWED TO REST ON ROTATING COMPONENTS. THE OTHER THREE WHEELS ALSO HAD LOOSE WIRES THAT THE TECHNICIAN HAD TO SECURE, THOUGH THEY DIDN'T NEED TO BE MENDED. THE PROBLEM WAS FIRST NOTICED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON A CITY STREET. THE BRAKE CONTROL BOX WAS READING SHORT CIRCUIT AND EVENTUALLY WENT TO AN OVERLOADED CONDITION AND STOPPED APPLYING THE BRAKES ALTOGETHER.
