The defect
Starcraft RV (Starcraft) is recalling certain model year 2015-2016 Autumn Ridge, and Solstice fifth wheel trailers manufactured August 12, 2014, to October 16, 2015, and equipped with a side vented sewer drainage system termination valve. The affected vehicles may be missing a caution label to inform the operator not to leave the drain valve open to prevent an escape of sewer gas.
The risk
If the drain valve is left open, sewer gas may fill the recreational vehicle, increasing the risk of occupant injury.
The remedy
Starcraft will notify owners, and send them the missing label, free of charge. The recall began on January 13, 2016. Owners may contact Starcraft customer service at 1-800-945-4787. Starcraft's number for this recall is 9902274.
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.
