NHTSA's recall notice
As NHTSA's recall record states it for campaign 14V038000.
Defect description
Four Wheel & Six-Pac Campers, Inc. (Four Wheel & Six-Pac) is recalling certain model year 2006-2013 truck campers manufactured January 1, 2006, through April 30, 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.
Safety consequence
If the deadbolt jams, the interior side of the door lock may also jam. A person inside the truck camper at the time will then be locked in and be unable to exit, increasing the risk of injury.
Manufacturer remedy
Four Wheel & Six-Pac will notify owners, and Fastec will coordinate the inspection and replacement of the cylinders, as needed, free of charge. The recall began on March 10, 2014. Owners may contact Four Wheel & Six-Pac at 1-530-666-1442 or Fastec at 1-800-837-2505.
Notes
