Recalls, owner-reported complaints, investigations and safety data

Data refreshed

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

Safety recallsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.

InvestigationsNHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.

Body & structure
Filed Apr 16, 2023

The Keystone Fuzion RV has a structural issue. I have been following other owners and there seems to be many RV’s with the same crack under the Master Bedroom. The crack appeared after transport I would not want to be the cause of an accident if the crack continued across the body and it detaching from the RV while being transporting and causing serious injury or death. I would like this investigated for not only my safety but the safety of other on the road.

Suspension
Filed Jul 12, 2021

Originally, the rear axle on our trailer failed last year in July of 2020. We had an axle that was cambered in and that resulted in abnormal wear on our rear tires. Because of the abnormal wear, we had a blowout of our left tire on the rear axle while traveling on Interstate 84 in Oregon. After eight months, the dealer, Camping World/Keystone, replaced the axle. Upon receiving the trailer back in April from the dealer, we noticed it was leaning to the right about three inches. Since we were unaware of the real issue, we went on our trip. We have had to level the trailer with leveling blocks at our campsite each time on the right side. We haven't had to do that in the past. Our safety and the safety of others were put at risk because the leaf spring could have broken, pulled the rear axle back, and steered us in an unexpected direction. This could result in us going into other vehicles on the road. Today, we had it inspected by two companies: The Spring Works as well as Bob Scott RV respectively in Grand Junction, Colorado. They both confirmed that we had a bad leaf spring on the right rear axle. Additionally, Bryan Dubose, at The Spring Works stated that the left rear leaf spring has been compromised because of the other faulty one. There were no warning signs other than the trailer leaning to the right when viewed from the rear. The symptom of the trailer leaning to the right first appeared when Camping World had replaced the defective rear axle and returned it to us in April of 2021.
