Equipment

17V7550001,205,997 vehicles affected

The problem
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
The risk
In the event of a fire, if the fire extinguisher does not function properly, it can increase the risk of injury.
The fix
Keystone will notify owners and instruct them to contact Kidde for a replacement fire extinguisher, free of charge. The recall began on January 15, 2018. Owners may contact Keystone customer service at 1-574-535-2100, 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.

Fuel system: auxillary tank

12V18700024 vehicles affected

The problem
Crossroads is recalling certain model year 2012 elevation recreational vehicles, manufactured from november 7, 2011, through february 22, 2012. The onboard, auxiliary fuel storage tank is installed too high, which does not permit the tank to be filled properly. As a result, fuel may come back out of the fuel filler neck and spill.
The risk
In the presence of an ignition source, this could cause a fire or an explosion which may result in personal injury or death.
The fix
Crossroads will notify owners, and dealers will replace the fuel tank mounting brackets free of charge. The recall began on june 28, 2012. Owners may contact thor at 937-596-6849 or crossroads at 260-593-2866.

Wheels: hub

12V023000172 vehicles affected

The problem
Crossroads rv is recalling certain model year 2012 rushmore and elevation recreational vehicles manufactured from june 1, 2011, through january 12, 2012, with panther style 16” 8-lug aluminum wheels. These vehicles have been manufactured with an incorrect wheel center cap. The center cap that was assembled with the trailer did not provide adequate clearance to allow the wheel to fully seat on the hub face of the axle. This can result in a wheel becoming loose and potentially coming off of the trailer.
The risk
A wheel separation can lead to loss of control of the trailer increasing the risk of a crash, serious injuries, or damage to others.
The fix
Crossroads rv will notify owners, and replace the center caps free of charge. The safety recall began on march 12, 2012. Owners may contact crossroads rv at 1-888-226-7496.
