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.

The defect: 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. For a full list of the affected fire extinguisher models visit: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2017/RMISC-17E062-5427.pdf

2010 KEYSTONE RAPTOR FIFTH WHEEL TRAILER. POTENTIALLY DEADLY INTEGRATED TRAILER BRAKE CONTROLLER. *TA THE CONSUMER STATED WHILE DRIVING, HE ENCOUNTERED SLOWING TRAFFIC. HE TAPPED THE BRAKES TO RELEASE THE CRUISE CONTROL THAT WAS SET AT 55 MPH, WHEN SUDDENLY THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF HIM HIT THE BRAKES HARD WHICH CAUSED HIM TO HIT THE BRAKE HARD AS WELL. WITH BOTH FEET ON THE BRAKE PEDAL TRYING TO STOP THE TRUCK AND TRAILER IT WAS EVIDENT THAT HE WAS NOT GOING TO STOP IN TIME. BUT AT THE LAST SECOND, THE CONSUMER GLANCED TO THE LEFT TO LOOK OUT THE MIRROR, HE WAS ABLE TO TURN TO THE LEFT TO AVOID SLAMMING INTO THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF HIM. SHORTLY AFTER HITTING THE BRAKE, HE REALIZED THERE WAS NO TRAILER BRAKES AND THE TRAILER WAS PUSHING THE TRUCK FORWARD. ONCE THE CONSUMER CAME TO A SOP, HE NOTICED THE SERVICE STABILITRAK AND CHECK TRAILER BRAKE LIGHTS WERE FLASHING. THE CONSUMER SLID THE BRAKE CONTROLLER SWITCH TO SEE IF THE TRAILER BRAKES WERE FUNCTIONING. THEY WERE NOT WORKING AT ALL. THE TRAILERS ELECTRIC CORD WAS PLUGGED IN. HE THEN WENT TO CHECK THE FOUR BULBS AND DISCOVERED THEY WERE COLD, AS IF THEY HAD NOT BEEN APPLIED DURING THE PANIC STOP FROM EARLIER. WHEN HE STARTED THE VEHICLE, THE TWO MESSAGES WERE GONE AND THE TRAILER BRAKES WERE FUNCTIONING AGAIN AS VERIFIED BY THE MANUAL SLIDE SWITCH. *JB
