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.

Filed Aug 16, 2016

WHILE DRIVING WITH OUR FIFTH WHEEL ATTACHED TO OUR TRUCK IN COLORADO ON OUR WAY TO MONTANA, WE HAD TO AVOID A MASSIVE SNOW STORM IN WYOMING THAT CLOSED I-25 AT THE COLORADO BORDER. WE DROVE EAST ON I-76 AND THEN CUT NORTH ONTO MAJOR US HIGHWAYS TO RAPID CITY, SD. DURING THAT TRIP, WE ENCOUNTERED UNUSUAL, SUSTAINED PERIODS OF HIGH WINDS WITH GUSTS AT 50 MPH PER THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE. UNKNOWN TO US AT SOME POINT DURING THAT DRIVE, PART OF OUR ROOF RIPPED OFF. WE DO NOT KNOW IF THE LOSS OF PART OF OUR ROOF CAUSED ANY SAFETY ISSUES OR HAZARDS TO OTHER MOTORISTS. THE ATTACHMENTS TELL THE WHOLE STORY REGARDING THE ROOF ISSUE. START WITH THE EMAIL TO KEYSTONE AND SEE THE COMBINED SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS THAT WERE ATTACHED TO THAT EMAIL REGARDING WORK DONE AT THE PURCHASING RV DEALERSHIP UNDER WARRANTY IN OCT 2014 WHICH DID NOT FIX THE ROOF LEAK, EMAILS I SENT TO FAMILY THAT MENTIONED THE CONTINUED ISSUE AND THEN THE INVOICE FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF THE ROOF IN MAY 2016. I'VE ALSO ATTACHED THE DENIAL FROM KEYSTONE OF OUR WARRANTY CLAIM AS WELL AS THE DENIAL OF OUR INSURANCE CLAIM FROM PROGRESSIVE. APPARENTLY, ROOF ISSUES ARE WELL DOCUMENTED ON KEYSTONE PRODUCTS; HOWEVER, THEY ARE DENYING BEING NOTIFIED IN 2014 THAT WE HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE ROOF LEAKING, WHICH IS THE REASON FOR DENYING OUR CLAIM.

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers. Older model years have had longer for reports to accumulate.
