NHTSA Campaign 13V478000

LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES

Issued by Aluminum Trailer Company · Reported Sep 30, 2013 · 4,295 vehicles affected

What's wrong

Aluminum Trailer Company (ATC) is recalling certain model year 2008-2013 Quest, RSX, and Raven trailers manufactured January 2008 through April 2013 and equipped with Fastec-brand door locks. It may be possible to remove the key from the lock in a way that potentially jams the deadbolt.

Consequence

If the deadbolt jams, the interior side of the door lock may also jam. A person inside the travel trailer at the time will then be locked in and be unable to exit the vehicle without using the emergency exit, increasing the risk of injury.

Remedy

ATC will notify owners, and Fastec will coordinate the inspection and replacement of the cylinders, as needed, free of charge. The recall began on November 18, 2013. Owners may contact ATC at 1-574-773-2440 or Fastec at 1-800-837-2505.
