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: KZRV, L.P. (KZRV) is recalling various 2002-2018 recreational trailers equipped with Kidde Plastic-Handle or Push Button 'Pindicator' Fire Extinguishers. See a list of the affected trailer models at: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2017/RMISC-17V749-9547.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
The risk: In the event of a fire, if the fire extinguisher does not function properly, it can increase the risk of injury.
The remedy: KZRV will notify owners, instructing them to contact Kidde for a replacement fire extinguisher, free of charge. The recall began on January 15, 2018. Owners may contact KZRV customer service at 1-800-768-4016 extension 154 or 153, or Kidde customer service toll free at 1-855-262-3540, or online at www.kidde.com and click on "Product Safety Recall" for more information.

Filed Dec 8, 2007

I HAD PICKED UP MY TRAILER FRIDAY EVENING FROM THE DEALER FOLLOWING SOME WARRANTY WORK. I DROVE STRAIGHT THROUGH FROM MARTINSVILLE TO RICHMOND, ABOUT A 4 HOUR DRIVE WITH NO STOPS. AVERAGE HIGHWAY SPEEDS OF 55 TO 65 MPH. TIRE PRESSURE HAD BEEN VERIFIED IN ALL 4 TIRES WHEN THE TRAILER WAS DROPPED OFF AT THE DEALER 6 DAYS EARLIER. A CHECK OF THE REMAINING TIRES THIS MORNING SHOW ALL AT 50 PSI (+/-1 PSI). WHEN I GOT HOME I FOUND THE LEFT FRONT TRAILER TIRE BLOWN. I DIDN'T EVEN NOTICE IT WHILE DRIVING, NOT SURE AT WHAT POINT IN THE TRIP IT BLEW. THE TRAILER DID FEEL A LITTLE "LOOSE" BUT OTHERWISE PULLED OK. THE TRAILER IS ABOUT 2 YEARS OLD AND WITH VERY FEW MILES ON IT. MOST OF OUR TRIPS ARE IN STATE. I WOULD ESTIMATE NO MORE THAN 5,000 TOTAL MILES. THE BLOWN TIRE HAS CAUSED DAMAGE TO THE WHEEL WELL AND UNDERCARRIAGE. NANKANG LOADMAX RADIAL, ST205/75R15, TUBELESS, LOAD RANGE C DOT WEUL 070 1005 N7. *TR

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.
