The defect
Keystone RV Company (Keystone) is recalling certain model year 2015-2016 Dutchmen Voltage recreational trailers manufactured August 6, 2014, to October 15, 2015. The affected vehicles may be equipped with an exterior folding ladder that is not properly secured to the vehicle wall.
The risk
If the ladder is not properly attached to the trailer, the ladder may detach while being used, increasing the risk of injury.
The remedy
Keystone has notified owners, and dealers will inspect the trailers and install the appropriate fasteners to properly secure the ladder to vehicle wall, free of charge. The recall began on December 8, 2015. Owners may contact Keystone customer service at 1-866-425-4369. Keystone's number for this recall is 15-242.
Notes
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
A 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.
